Thanks for the tip that I should have thought of before, Navy.

I talked with Seth at ARB about developing a locker for us. And he says it's on the bottom of the priority list because there's not a market for it and it's a grocery getter now.

I asked him what kind of market he needed. And he said they would pretty much need 100 guarenteed purchases to even consider creating one.

With that being said, I'm not looking for sob stories, I'm not looking for tall tale stories of crap.

I'm looking for people who are interested in pushing this company to at least look into it. Because they have no intentions of even looking at this right now.

Rules of this thread:
A) If you don't want one, don't say anything.
B) If you're interested then say you are.
C) Which ones? Front, back, both?
D) Don't repost...you've said you wanted one...that's all we need to know in this thread.

I'm doing this because this will make the count VERY easy. I'd like to see us get up over 100 and maybe we can convince them to at least ponder the idea.

EDIT: This is all contingent on what the price is, obviously. You will not be FORCED to purchase one as we don't know a price.


I'm interested in Front only

I find the above statement very irritating. Gen 1 xterra's could also be considered grocery getters. Hell, JEEPS can be consider that also. Sorry, just a bit ticked at ARB for that statement.

If they make a locker are they also going to look into doing gears?

lockers

I am interested in both, but at the same time am concerned about breaking things, as I have already broken my front differential (which should hopefully be fixed in the next couple days).

Maybe with lockers, I would not need to spin my wheels so much to make it up hills (I know this is bad, but it sometimes works).

Im in the market for at least a rear.... hopefully both.... but im with him ^, not wanting to break n e thing

you will just move up to bigger hills

 

[ChrisHaynesUSA]

I would be up for both.

 

[joey52685]

I would do the rear first, if I got more serious off-road maybe both.

 

[Lightspur]

Interested in rear's, maybe both depending on $$.

 

[sanfordfire]

Front, since i already got the rear in the OR, But $$$...and breakage would be final concern

I was at ARB a few weeks back and was told to expect a C200K locker (for S model automatic) by "summertime"

Damn that is great news, I'm expecting the same for the M205, keeping fingers crossed.

Well, it's summertime in Australia.

LOL!!! touche

If I recall, the priority of this locker was bumped up since the same diff is also used on the Suzuki Equator.

*quick search to verify..*

yup, same update can be found here: http://ruggedrocksoffroad.com/blog/2009/01/06/lockn-it-up-update-on-2nd-gen-nissan-lockers/

At least 10 of us would pull the trigger on this rite away and
when we praise how much better the X does off road,
at least 10 more would bite!!!
