Genuine Gear Quick-Lok

Post by Steinberg »

I blew mine up this weekend in the TTB D35. It just pops and slips on the left side. Other side still pulls fine. A friend of mine that had one in the same axle experienced a similar failure. Have any of you guys had experience with them? I'm gonna call up 4WP tomorrow and see what they say about it. Broke too easily if you ask me.

when my aussie let go, it was just the pins that had sheared, locking the pucks together. pull the diff and take a look. i'm pretty sure the puck on whatever side is "stuck" will be frozen on the sheared pins. good news, the pins cost like $15 and take 5 seconds to install, aside from pulling your diff.

well that's interesting, cause mine isn't stuck, it's popping and slipping.

I start the SAS in march. I don't feel like tearing it all apart before then.

The teeth were rounded off on one side. The other side hadn't started slipping yet, but did show slight signs of rounding.
