Auburn Electric Locking differential….

[Marshall 008]

Just testing the waters to see if anyone has any first hand experience with these Auburn electric lockers? I know Auburn limited slip diffs from friends that drag raced mustangs as a teenager. Never heard anything bad about them. I’m thinking of ditching the factory G80 differential for one of these Auburn units.

I like the idea of not having to install a compressor for an ARB air locker in lieu of running some wires.

Any thoughts???

I have no experience with that brand. Lots of experience with factory Elockers of several brands and ARB.

Most circumstances where a selectable locker is essential would also make airing down desirable, so I view onboard air as a plus. The small tubing for an ARB is no more difficult to run than wiring.

I do see Auburn makes a combo LSD/Locker. Don’t know if there’s one to fit our trucks. I had a similar diff by AAM as factory equipment in my Power Wagon and it was an awesome diff. IMO opinion that combo is better than any single function locker including ARB.
