Re: New Eaton Locker added to Base H3
It's here at the Dealer. Will get installed with ReadyLift Front leveler (too bad the Cognito/Bilstein Shocks aren't available at this time as well:mad:). Can't wait :p.

Re: New Eaton Locker added to Base H3
Ok. Tomorrow the Dragon will go in for the leveler and the locker. A little L&L :excited:
Can't wait to see how she'll climb this week-end. :dancingbanana::dancingbanana::dancingbanana: |
Re: New Eaton Locker added to Base H3
Hi guys, Please need help!!!!, I also seen the elocker on trailduty, I was under the impression that rear diff on my h3 hummer was a 10 bolt 7.5" and not a 8.5" Did the dealer have to do anything special to fit the Eaton Locker. I want to buy this locker but I want to be sure it fits.
Thanks |
Re: New Eaton Locker added to Base H3
rear axle is gm 8.0 10 bolt 8" ring 28 spline c-clip axles
front is gm 7.2 reverse cut 10 bolt cover.(p.o.s) i am looking for gears for mine. hard to find |

No the dealer didn't have to anything special to make the locker fit.. The Eaton Locker I ordered from Trail Duty had everything required to hook it up... I even had them locate the on/off button for the locker where one of the factory light buttons would go... Very clean... If you need a picture let me know.... |
Re: New Eaton Locker added to Base H3
Got it back from the dealership today levelled and locked :D .
Will try some climbs tomorrow to see how it works. Here's what I was charged (don't know whether it was reasonable or whether I got takened to the cleaners :p ) Part# Part QTY List Sell Total 009418390 Bearing 2 114.84 76.08 152.16 089021677 Gear Lubr 35 29.72 23.72 71.16 011509086 Strap-tie 125 2.64 1 12 NPN 19659-1 E-locker 1 1295 760.95 760.95 Labor 405 Interesting that they put the button on the auto-shifter console and not use one of the buttons available under the radio. But the yellow button does look cool next to the shifter. |

Don't mean to highjack just got a question on the readylift, you say no issues, did you have the dealer install/ I assume that it would correct any/ all related potential issues with cranking the tortion bar? I am thinking of having the dealer put them on when I take delivery on mine. |
Re: New Eaton Locker added to Base H3
Yes, had dealer installed it. They were nice enough not to add the labor of that to the labor for installing the locker. BTW, went to the local playground and tested the locker and level. A word of caution on the installation of the lockers. It took longer than the 4 hours that was promised me by ~ 72 hours!! So far so good. Boy those climbs are easier :) . Might lose my driving skills using dem lockers in MOAB;) .

How do you like the ride with the level kit? Any noticeable changes to ride quality, dipping when braking and cornering? |

Is there an upgrade path for the front alum diff after the rig is out of warranty? |
Re: New Eaton Locker added to Base H3
A lot of people here are hoping to upgrade the aluminum case to the cast iron one from the 08 alpha. The gears are different, but any good shop could set up your old gears in the new case.
I wonder ... since it's all GM, it might not void your warranty either. But if you let a dealership do the work, you'll at least get their standard 1-year on parts. |

No noticeable change in ride quality. No dipping when braking and cornering around town. (Drove it for a few weeks then went to have realignment.) |
Re: New Eaton Locker added to Base H3
Hey ChasH3, as I think about it a little more, do we disengage traction control when engaging the rear locker to climb and such?
