Elocker shot what happened w/ picks

[woodro]

My elocker stopped working one day so I took it apart to see if in had to be realigned because I heard it trying to engage .
When I finally got it off ( it was ceased on ) it had a hole in the back of it . Now I have to buy a new elocker but don't want to spend $600 on 1 from Toyota .
I don't want a cable conversion , want to keep it stock .
No junk yards around my area have elockers .
Are there any other options other than dealership ?

how did you snap it?

turning in a circle with it engaged while on pavement or solid rock can cause this kind of damage.

where to get one?
* classifieds section
* start calling junk yards around the country
* EBAY. Lots of legit scrap yards sell on EBAY

I think you may want to be sure your exact axle matches the eLocker you buy. Check on that. I'm not 100% sure.

Looks like the back of it corroded away , it was stuck to the rear diff after I removed the bolts .

I don't think turning on dry asphalt would do this anyway , all the locker does is move a slide over in the diff to lock it .
Trying to track a junk yard down that has one , I don't want to buy the whole diff .

If anyone has any ideas on a yard that has one please send the info my way

Man I'm sorry to hear this. I hope you find one soon. Some junkyard can actually order a part from another yard if they don't have it. Good luck

Thanks , this sucks , I can't even find the part number . I don't think they sell separate from the diff . Going to the dealership today to see if I can even get it.
