locker kit, use the stock sidegears and
have fun.

Gear oil, that's what else you need, the
bearings and seals need to be pressed off

Post by: tracker8wr on June 07, 2004, 12:35:44 PM: i just order one i will put it in this weekend. i have detroits in my K-5 Blazer on 42" boggers. when it gets stuck it takes both my 12000 lbs winchs front and rear to get it out. that is one reason i love zuks because (IF)it does get stuck 3 good size guys and a hilift will get u out. Don't have to worry about ice in southwest louisiana.

Your going to need a slide hammer to pull the axels out of the side gears.

Make sure you read the install directions carefully and take your time.

The way they have you set up the locker eliminates the need to reset your R&P backlash. If youÃ¢â‚¬â„¢re careful.
