Are Auto Lockers Any Good?
Automatic lockers are great because they give reliable traction always. There's no forgetting to flip a switch, no wiring or airlines to worry about, just traction.

Whats better electric or air lockers?

This means e-lockers are significantly more reliable and is why they are the preferred option for many commercial users and manufacturers. They are, however, slightly less instantaneous than air lockers and some older models can take a few seconds to engage.

How do auto lockers work?

An auto locker replaces the standard gears in a vehicle's differential housing, allowing the diff to be locked automatically, thereby letting a wheel turn, even if its partner is spinning in the air. When one wheel finds itself in the air, a diff lock become a rather essential off-road item.
