Dirty Bucket

Good news, I ended getting all the broken bolts out out of the diff case. Not sure if any of you follow Anderson Design Fabrication on instagram, but he just got the locker installed. I know of a few other people that have just received the prototypes for testing. One guy I follow on youtube just got his from TorqMasters and will be installing it soon. https://www.youtube.com/user/powerofyourbrains Also, I'm going to be attending Wicked Big Meet this year and TorqMasters is supposed to have a booth there, I would assume displaying the locker. Here's hoping this thing actually goes on sale!

This is the locker I'm going to get. Not quite released yet, but some people have prototypes for testing. https://www.facebook.com/TorqMasters/posts/1174049176107872 I'll see about trying to get the bolts out. It certainly would be easier than swapping everything.

Awesome, that's all I needed to know. Thanks!

I've got an lifted 2002 Forester Auto and I'm looking to change out the rear differential. Currently it has the 4.44 ratio rear LSD. I am looking to swap out the LSD for a locker. I've got my old differential from my 2015 WRX with a 4.11 ratio. I ended up getting a third differential that is a 4.44 open. In order to install the locker, you have to have an open as the LSD housing won't work. The case on the 4.44 housing has a couple broken bolts on the cover So basically, what I need to do is take the open 4.44 carrier out and put it in the new 4:11 case. My question is would I have to swap the pinion from the 4.44 to the new case or would I be able to just keep the 4.11 pinion and use the 4.44 ring gear from the old diff. Obviously I would take care to keep the backlash and preload to proper specs.

That's awesome to hear. I was looking into the primitive one before the lift, but since I did the sub-frame drop I didn't want to spend the money on one and have it not fit right. I'll contact them. Did you get the thin one or the thick rally spec one?

With my 2" subframe drop, I don't believe that one will bolt right up. If it does, I'd love to. I've got a friend that used the Loyal skid plate and it worked perfect. He also had a 2" drop.

I am looking for a Loyal skid plate. I plan on putting it on my lifted 2002 forester. There doesn't seem to be many around so I was hoping I could pick one up on here. Thanks, Alex
