eaton elocker or yukon zip locker?

[gijohn40]

I need a new selectable locker for my front dana 30 axle in the LJ and I have narrowed it down to either the Eaton Elocker or the Yukon zip locker....

So who has experience with either of them? I feel the elocker will be better for me due to I don't have the air compressor that the zip locker requires. And being electrically minded I would rather do the wiring for a electrical hook up that I know I can trouble shoot down the road.

But I want to hear the pro's and con's of just these two lockers.

So who cares to chime in?

I run Zips front and rear in my TJ. I have never had any issues with them. I don't have any experience with the E locker.

We run e-lockers in all of our jeeps and have had no problems with any of them.

I run Zip lockers and they have been great so far. No problems with them. The compressor isn't expensive or hard to install. The warranty on the Zip locker is much better.

I Love my Zip Lockers as well I have wheeled with people and seen Eatons break first hand.
