Drain the Lube and Remove the Differential cover. |
 |
Use a 1/4" - 12 point wrench to remove the pinion shaft retaining bolt. |
 |
Slide out the pinion shaft. |
 |
Remove the spider gears that should now be loose. |
 |
The gold colored part in the pic is a C-clip, that will need to be removed on each side. |
 |
Remove the brake drums so you can slide the axles in far enough to remove the C-clips and then slide it out far enough to remove the side gears. |
 |
Here is a pic of the C-clips and cone washers for the spider gears. You will not re-use the cone washers, but there will be a thin washer between each side gear and the carrier that you will need to re-install. |
 |
Here the axle is pulled out far enough to remove all the gears. |
 |
Pull axle out until the splined end is flush to the bearing inside carrier. |
 |
Locker laid out the way it will go together. you are basically working from the sides into the center. Already installed on each outer half is the inner half of the coupler. It will only fit on one way, also installed- although incorrectly are the shear pins. We found out later in the install they need to be in the bigger, deeper holes so they are out of the way when trying to slide the second side together. This is also a good time to grease everything up so it sticks together as you put it in the carrier. |
 |
Slide the axle in far enough to get the first piece of the locker on and slide the C-clip back on the shaft. Then pull the axle shaft back out to hold the C-clip in place. |
 |
Install the second half of
the locker and the inner coupler. The inner coupler should slide all the
way in and over the C-clip. This is what keeps it from falling out. Now you basically do the same thing to the other side except you leave the C-clip out until you get the second half and inner coupler in the carrier. The C-clip will be put in through the slot that is in the second half of the locker. You may have to slide the inner coupler out of the way to get the clip back in the groove. Then slide the inner coupler back over it like on the other half. |
| You can now slide the shear pins across into the small hole in the other side of the locker. as you slide each pin across. Install the double set of springs behind it through each big hole in the side of the locker. | |
 |
Install the pinion shaft included in the kit and re-install the pinion shaft retaining bolt. |
 |
The locker is now installed. Everything should now be locked up and your axles should turn the same direction. |
 |
Time to seal the diff back up with RTV sealant or a new gasket. Re-fill with gear lube and put your wheels back on. |
 |
Go try that mother out!! |
