Yes there are two jackstands not pictured.
You have to disconnect the drive-shaft to take the 3rd member out.

Gotta love when you finish installing it and it doesn't work.

Ouch! That's no good. :nono:
Sounds like one of my projects. Hope you get it figured out!

Alright, it works.
It didn't work because I installed the solenoid on the air compressor backwards. Whoops.
Let me first say this is not by any means a do it yourselfer. Don't even attempt if you've never dealt with gears before.
Easily the hardest thing I've ever done.
Start with who worked on the project: Me, My Dad, and my neighbor (mechanic).
Phone calls I made today installing the air locker:
3 calls to Marlin Crawler
1 call to Yukon Gear
1 call to yotamasters in Corona, CA <--- super nice guys! I would recommend them to anyone!
And you'll probably ban me for saying this next thing but,
my camera broke.
It works now though, and that's all that matters. Tomorrow I will take pictures of the air line routing and such.
I have school tomorrow too...

This thing is very quick to engage. 5 seconds or so and I'm locked.

Ready to use the Yukon to climb up the Matterhorn now?
Looks good. Congrats on a nice install. If I only had a 4runner when I was in high school.

Looks good! Where did you find that relay for your RR DIFF light? Nobody around here seems to have any.

I think they all do.
This is the one I'm using:
12VDC/40A SPST Automotive Relay : Automotive Relays | RadioShack.com

Thanks, maybe I can get them to get it shipped to the store. I'm totally stealing your idea by the way lol.

Do it. I'm surprised that I haven't found anyone else that has done this yet...

Bump for a year after review of the locker. I am itching to lock something and it will either be one of these in my 3rd gen DD or one in my 90 pickup.
Thanks
Thanks

I still love it. I have more problems with the air compressor. I haven't had a single problem with the actual locker.
