The LOCK-RIGHT Locker is quieter than competing locking differentials, but nonetheless, as the vehicle continues through the turn, the teeth repeatedly engage and disengage producing a ratcheting sound. When entering a turn, where the outside wheel needs to travel faster than the inside wheel, the teeth driving the outside wheel disengage. Power is transferred to the wheels through intermeshing teeth in such a way that one wheel cannot be powered ahead of the other. Many import vehicles that have four pinion differentials and the Ford 9-inch will differ slightly from the picture above. Most General Motors, Chevrolet, Jeep, Chrysler, Toyota, and late model Fords have this type of assembly.

The POWERTRAX LOCK-RIGHT Locker is shown in the diagram (click to view full detail) and consists of two Drivers, two Couplers, and two Spacers. Please see the POWERTRAX® TRACTION SYSTEMS page. For vehicles that are driven daily or require more mainstream application, the POWERTRAX TRACTION SYSTEMS offer a quieter and smoother performance. We recommend the LOCK-RIGHT for vehicles that are primarily driven in severe driving conditions or are used for recreational off-road. This is normal of most lockers on the market today. In some vehicles, you will hear a light clicking noise as the gears are overrunning themselves and allowing the wheels to differentiate in a turn. Whether it be snow, sand, mud, ice, etc… the LOCK-RIGHT will give you the traction you need.Īlthough smoother than other competitive locking differentials, the brute force characteristics of the POWERTRAX LOCK-RIGHT Locker limit general application in less tolerant and more mainstream applications. For example, if you are rock crawling and one wheel is in the air (complete loss of traction), the wheel on the ground will receive the engine power and keep you going. When operating off-road, the LOCK-RIGHT will always send the engine power to the wheels that need it most. The internal gears on the LOCK-RIGHT will overrun each other to allow this differentiation.
However, when the wheels need to differentiate in a turn, the LOCK-RIGHT will allow the outside wheel to rotate faster to complete the turn. While traveling straight the LOCK-RIGHT will lock the axles together similar to a spool. Designed to send the engine power to the wheels with the most traction, the LOCK-RIGHT will help get you where you want to go. The LOCK-RIGHT’s operation is fully automatic. An excellent choice for off-road vehicle applications, performance enthusiasts also began using the LOCK-RIGHT LOCKER to satisfy their extreme traction requirements for racing, hot-rods and muscle cars.

It is a leading product because the LOCK-RIGHT delivers as much traction output, its end assembly is exceptionally strong, is much less expensive, and does not require professional installation (because the complete case assembly does not have to be replaced and realigned with precision calibration equipment).
rivals much more expensive competitive lockers sold only as complete case replacement assemblies. The LOCK-RIGHT has been used in the harshest conditions around the world by hard-core off-roaders, in towing applications, and even United Nation vehicles in rugged terrain.įor traction output, strength and durability, the POWERTRAX LOCK-RIGHT Locker.
Cases that occasionally fail with open or limited-slip/posi differentials become one of the strongest links in the drive train when equipped with the POWERTRAX LOCK-RIGHT LOCKER. It has been widely used in demanding off-road applications around the world requiring extreme traction output and high-strength.īecause the LOCK-RIGHT eliminates wheel spin-up and therefore its associated driveline trauma is negated, the strength and integrity of its surrounding original case and other driveline components are, in effect, substantially increased. The POWERTRAX LOCK-RIGHT Locker is the original locking differential that could be easily installed in existing case assemblies without any special tools or setup equipment.
