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.
For traction output, strength and durability, the POWERTRAX
LOCK-RIGHT Locker. rivals much more expensive competitive lockers
sold only as complete case replacement assemblies. 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). 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.
The LOCK-RIGHT's operation is fully automatic. 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. While traveling straight the
LOCK-RIGHT will lock the axles together similar to a spool. 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. The
internal gears on the LOCK-RIGHT will overrun each other to allow
this differentiation.
When operating off-road, the LOCK-RIGHT will always send the engine
power to the wheels that need it most. 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. Whether it be snow, sand, mud, ice, etc... the LOCK-RIGHT
will give you the traction you need.
Although 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. 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. This is normal of most lockers on the
market today. We recommend the LOCK-RIGHT for vehicles that are
primarily driven in severe driving conditions or are used for
recreational off-road.
