Once hot racing began making our version of the MRC locker our sales dropped, I lowered the prices to match them but the profit was incredibly low. With how slow they sold we simply decided to not do another batch. Our quality of material is/was much higher but the majority didn't seem to care. |

I am with Jeremy. I was very underwhelmed with the quality of HR stuff. If you decided to make them again you would have a buyer for 2 out of me.

If I was a machinest this is what I I would come up with. A locker with set screws to lock the axles in. I think someone makes a similar one for the AX10. Anyway, I am runnig the steel ones now but I do get a good bit of slop out of it.

Here is a quick thought. I wonder if it would make since to make lockers in pairs. The rear one would be made with a pinion to go with the stock ring but would be a 12t underdrive to match the traxxas front overdrive. I tried and tried to make Rockhards system work but just could not get it. This would I think create huge demand for this locker and system. Those who have any pull with RC bros maybe this would be a decent idea. |
