Posi Lock Cable

[Heavyd1980]

Ok guys my question is who is running or had experience with these http://www.4x4posi-lok.com/app_dodge.html??? If you are running one whats the install like, op's like, what does the install look like in the cab, etc.? for the price it doesnt look too bad but i would like to hear from you guys.

well the final install doesnt look horrible, i wonder what the rest of the install is like (their website only shows the install on a Chevy) and the operation of the system.

[Rogan]

The install is fairly simple, to be honest. You're changing the fork hat from vacuum to cable operation (obviously), and there's no other real tricky parts involved.

[Heavyd1980]

well i was kinda curious about the op's in cold weather? Do you have any experience with these Rogan?

[Rogan]

I've put them on Jeeps. They seem to work just fine; it isn't a real issue, AFAIK.the other nice think is, you can use it as a 2L transfer case option.. Engaging 4L, but not the front axle.. ;)

[Heavyd1980]

that is a great point 2L in real 2 wheel drive would be nice!!! thanks man.

[Rogan]

yeah, it makes it kinda nice when you need that slow, low gear, but on hard surface (like backing up a big trailer, etc.)

[Heavyd1980]

thats exactly the situation i was thinking of!!!

[Prowelder]

I've never put one in but knew a rancher with one that the shop I worked for installed and my old boss said it wasn't hard to do. Pretty handy to have I think, I'd like to have one so I would have 2L for trailers and such.

thanks Winslow. i just used my 4by the other night with the snow and all and i wasnt real sure that it was in 4by. so i thought about all the wonderful vacuum lines to run down.

[Rogan]

my 4wd light is inop, but I know when it's engaged, by the steering
