Hi all. I would like to know if anyone here has had any dealings with
Auburn
Gear. Particularly with the Ected locker. I have an Ected in front and
rear
( d30& d35), they have been in now for three months. The first time I used
the front locker I had a hard time unlocking it, after I turned it off I
had
to go in reverse, turning hard left and then hard right for about a
quarter
mile,( all this time I was in a sandy wash) before it finally disengaged.
The second time I used it, it would not disengage at all, had to drive
home
with front fully locked. I took it to the local Auburn distributor and
they
said it was the coil. Auburn said to ****p the complete locker to them and
they would diagnose the problem. Meanwhile I have been without "Mater" for
two weeks now and am in desperate need of an off road fix. Now my
questions.
Has anyone ever had to send in their locker for "diagnoses"? Did they pay
for ****pping to and from? Did they replace the locker or just the part
that
was "diagnosed" as bad. I have tried to have a civil conversation with
them,
but they act like I am trying to screw them out of a million dollars. I
think I should of went with ARB air lockers instead but I wanted a diff
that
would act like a limited slip while off and then fully locked when engaged
and the Ected is the only one that would do that.
Hope to hear some thoughts on this. Thanks in advance.
Gary
