i am looking into getting an aussie locker for 31 spline 8.8 and for my dana 35 front.

i cant seem to find one for the dana 35 front, will a jeep dana 35 fit? even tho its reverse rotation? i dont think it would matter but i want to make sure before ordering.

and does anyone know where is the best place to buy these?

I have an aussie in my front and it helps pull the truck through most obstacles, and with the weight of the motor on the front it seems to really grab.

hey kenny, what front end do you have? ifs or ttb? so you only have one in the front and nothing in the rear?

Yeah, what Downey said, get the front first if you have the shop/ lift to make the install easier. It's great in the front, the rear would just add to the sweetness.

BTW I'm new to the forum. I thought I was already registered, but I wasn't. I'm all over the explorer forum but find this place just as usefull, and distracting too!

+1 for front aussie. I got one just in the front of my 85' and its amazing. the rear is still an open diff but as of now that doesn't matter cuz that front locker can handle it all. I go though some stuff like it was nothing and some of my friends that have opens front and rear just peal out and sometimes cant make it. Aussie is a really good locker and pretty cheap compared to some of the lockrites and whatnot- get the aussie you wont be disapointed i promise :icon_thumby:

Yes, aussie front and open rear, but before I swapped in my disc brake 8.8 I had a 7.5 with a brandy new trac lock so I can say I've experience both and the front feels like it helps more.

Different carrier actually.

yeah its for the TTB dana 35. in my other truck (the one in my sig) i have a lockright up front which is the same thing...all i can say is DAMN that thing pulls me thru some hairy stuff.

course the rear locker helps with that too, but with lockers and 31's i can go places like some spring under, 33 tire wearing, square headlight pc of crap jeep only dreams of going.

sorry jeep owners, i just dont get it. :icon_twisted:
