What size bolts are you using for holding the ring gear on?
Thanks,

Yes a one piece (left and right axles as one solid piece?) Sounds interesting if that's what you meant?

Great news! Especially for those of use headed to NWSC.

With the new Holmes motor I might be having to order some VVD's as well.

Oh buy some already you big wuss! Haha. They are leaps and bounds above the axial universals, and coupled with the new lockers will be the last upgrade ever needed.

Looking forward to the lockers, it will be the final piece to making the Titan 60s the toughest SOBs out there. Run highland steel lockers now, but everything else on them is VP so might as well.
CFM+VP= WINNING!!

I could have got my 1:1 Bronco back on the trail with what I've already spent for this trip, and I haven't left yet.

The price you pay for building one of the coolest rigs ever. I think VP should hook you up, I mean it's not like they won't get any publicity or anything on Guido.

So, should I just leave the diff cover off for now and replace the HC with VP? Sure would be nice given the money already invested in these.

Now we all know they wouldn't do that This actually fixes a problem that I pointed out with that style locker.

That's what I've heard, just wandering how long out they are. They will definitely be replacing these heavy pieces that don't center the shafts

Hello everybody! Are there any updates concerning the release of the VP Lockers? It’s been a while since Tom from VP said something about the test reports. Surely many of us are looking forward to getting a pair of those!

I was told that they would be released to purchase in 1 week.
