    Default G80 Locker info

    While researching why the G80 "Gov-Lok" automatic locking differential is not working in my new SF 14-bolt axle, I came across this awesome video explaining how the locker works. I thought others might find it useful as well:

    These lockers are likely one of the best currently on the market....
    They work when you need them and don't cause annoying issues when you don't need them....

    There are a few that are better for rugged off road application.....But for a standard OEM unit....Pretty good...
