I've ordered mine through SBR Offroad and they'll fit them for me as well. Vic did all the homework regarding ratios etc.

I only need the diff locks for peace of mind when I tow my small offroad van where I shouldn't. Thinking about a winch as well, for the same reason.

Whats the deal with Harrop/ELocker? Just Harrop putting their name on Eaton? or special Harrop Modified E-Lockers? did Harrop contribute to the 4 Spider Gear Design?

Harrop do some VERY nice work and they do say in collaboration with Eaton so you would hope that means they have had some engineering input rather than just distribution.

Perhaps the new four pinion version might have had some of their input ?

Shame... but I agree on getting the newer version of the Eaton rather than the old style.
