Rear locking axle on a 2011` limited

[aztec]

I bought a 2011 limited because I liked the package but as I understand it does not have a locking rear axle like the trail model. What would be involved to install lockers on the rear axle and would it be worth it for mild to serious off roading.

I would probably do something about your front and rear bumpers to improve angles before tackling the rear axle locker...maybe buy the Trail's bumpers??

You can wait for ARB to come out with an air rear locker for the 5th gen...i believe that the total cost (including labor) is around $1800 or so.

I guess that it is not a bad thing to buy Limited for the cool center diff, then invest in TE's bumpers + ARB rear locker. I think that harper did it...you can ask him.
