Detroit locker

[JimCT]

The locker was probably one of the best things we have done to the truck. Walks through things on the trail that would surprise most folks. Great in the snow last winter too.

This brings up some questions from me. I have yet to learn much about axels, so here goes.

I have Stage 1 V8 axels on my ride. Out of the box are they 24 spline, right?

If so, that means this is the correct DL for me, right?

That one is for 3.54 gear sets. Your's is most likely 4.7's right? I'm not a Detroit expert but I think if it does fit you would likely need a ring gear spacer. You'd be better off pursuing a unit made specifically for the 4.7's if they make one.

I'm not sure what I've got. I just don't know enough about axels - I just know that the PO said they were the v8 ones.

take a photo and post them here...will help the rest of us identify what you have.

Stage One axles are based on RR axles and have 3.54 gearing in the diff's.

Stage One's used a Sauls rear end as all but a very few were in the 109 configuration.

As with all Land Rover hybrid builds, so many parts interchange, so it is hard to say firm and fast what you have.

Who's a good supplier? I have been thinking about doing this in my 109's sals rear axle and was only worried it would require some special tools to install?

[SafeAirOne]

I figure that Great Basin Rovers and Lucky 8 are both probably pretty Rover-knowledgable suppliers of lockers for Salisburys. Probably a few others around, but these 2 suppliers come to mind immediately.

Several Rover shop owners (and non-shop owners) on this board that are likely very familiar with lockers for Salisburys too, though you specified suppliers.

For an 88" still using stock 10 spline axles the Truetrac might be a better option for most people. At least that is my theory.

LWB+24 spline axles would make a Detroit more viable. Automatic lockers in a SWB can be screwy at times- slippery side hills and on snowy roads.

You talking about this?

225SL36 is the correct part number. Check this application guide for more information:

Remember that the Detroit Locker for the Salisbury is the same as a lunchbox locker, NOT a carrier replacement locker. Since the carrier in the series and defenders are the same, they use the same locker. Doesn't matter what R&P you use since you won't touch the ring or pinion.
