I had a Powertrax lunchbox locker installed on my front Dana 30 a couple of days ago. The shop is a very good, reputable shop that I trust and has done great work with my past re-gear and driveline.
Anyway...I was driving it after I picked it up the locker engaged while in 2Wheel. Not fun to have a locker engaged while driving around town. Definitely not safe as I pretty much lost 85% of my steering/turning ability.
I dropped my jeep back off this morning to try and figure out why it won't disengage. From what I've read and what @Jerry Bransford said, Powertrax is a good brand with a solid reputation. He called me this afternoon and was lost. I've read some threads about Thrust washers not working...He replaced those today and that didn't work. I've also read that my Jeep's 4Wheel drive isn't disengaging and he said that wasn't an issue either. He said he followed the instructions to perfection. The guy who did the locker mentioned that he's not only done a million lunchbox lockers but is familiar with the Powertrax brand. He was lost. I literally asked me to post in this forum to see what anyone can help lol. Anything helps!
Side note...I have 5.13 gears in there with some new Chromolys... If that might help for additional info.
