I have been a fan of Auto-lockers for a while now. I had one in the rear of my 75 Cruiser. It was a Detroit series IV. I was able to pull it apart before fitment and was able to see the ruggedness of the construction. It is a similar principle to the "lokkas". Ramps to disengage and teeth for drive. They are in different location. Also backed up by two very heavy coil springs. I have a GU Patrol and there is no Detroit available for it. Having said that, I am more than happy with the LSD in the back. I have helped a mate fit a Lokka to the front of his Patrol. He reports the drive now is much better. Bundyrulz G’day Paul,
