Sometime in the wee hours of this morning I posted a link (or thought I posted a link) to a new locker that I came across and thought you guys might be interested in - but it seems to have disappeared, so I'm not certain what happened.
Anyway - here it is again - Kaiser Lockers and no, I am not affiliated in any way, just thought it might be of interest.

Ok - I never saw anything on them before - and yes $740 for an "auto" locker does sound high.

Probably heaps better than a lockright. But you're halfway to an airlocker, so why not save a bit more.

That locker is neat! Seems to use a two way sprag clutch system with a disengagement mechanism! Concept looks good!

That was my exact thought - a two way sprag clutch - what I'm curious about is what happens if the engine is on the over run - do you still get engine braking?
Looking at the diagram it would appear not.

Think the overrun works on the outer axle traveling at greater speeds than the inner ie outside arc on the corner?
With both slowing down it acts as a drive in reverse maybe? But yea that diagram seems to make it look like there will be no engine braking...
