Danny. Have you found the thread that talks about directly wiring the lockers? I've had pretty good luck with mine so far. I can see that luck changing in the middle of the wrong trail. It would be nice to cut out the power wagon dance too!

Yes I was working on them yesterday. The front lockers work awesome :rockon: they lock in fast and easy along with unlocking :jawdrop:

:box: My rear lockers on the other hand are still not working :angry: It is time for a gear lube change so I am realy hoping that when I get under there and clean out the lockers that, that will work. I am hopeing it is a build up of metal preventing them from locking up, if not I will have to rethink this entire process :cash: .

Do you know if anyone else has had this issue? Will not lock up, and after they changed the gear oil and cleaned out the locker magnets they then had no issues.

Just set a date and I'll try to meet up. I'm sure Danny will have his rear locker figured out soon too. When he does he'll be itching to be out on the trail again. He was climbing really well one moment and the next all his mojo was gone. I won't be surprised if we see a Mark44 mounted on the bed of his power wagon next time to show the rocks who's in charge. I've also got someone else asking to meet up. Hint is he's got an extreme ram2500. I did say extreme.

Nice viedeos, Did anyone take any videos of "OX"? I only got that one video that I posted earllier. If so I will PM you my password for youtube if you would not mind uploading it for me?

I will be up and running soon, looking for the locker solenoid as we speak. If anyone finds a good place to purchase one let me know?

Can't wait to hit the trails again SOON!

IDK how I didn't see the videos until now but, cool!!! I didn't even know y'all caught me on camera! Man, I can't wait to get my MTRK's on, those BFGA/T's were struggling in a couple instances!

About a late summer or early fall trip out there again, I'd definitely be down for one, it's only just barely over an hour trip for me so, nice short jaunt over!
