Request picture of rear axle with elocker

[jleds]

Hello! How you guys doing? I was wondering if anyone had pictures of their rear axle with the elocker that they could possibly post. I want to attempt replacing the whole axle assembly to at the factory elocker but I want to have a real world view of how the sub harness is set and what the difference is between mine, a non locker. I was patiently waiting for a torsen diff but I guess it isn't one of my strongest virtues. Appreciate your time and consideration and thanks in advance!

I don't have an e-lock but I did find these threads that may be of some use.

I have the electronic locking rear differential. Took the attached photos, not sure if they will help but here they are:

Thank you for the help! So far I think its straight forward. The wiring seems to be un-pluggable (at least on initial research lol) then plug in the sub-harness for the locker. Just need to verify in forscan that I can turn on the locker before paying for labor lll

I know someone who has swapped an e-locker rear end from a wrecked Ranger into a non-locked Ranger, and I think he literally installed a switch to simply turn the locker on and off. So, that's always a possibility if FORScan doesn't work to access it through the trucks hardware. Are you on Facebook?

I am, if you can dm me his info I can reach out That's awesome it seems straight forward and I was able to find it on FORSCAN (I think in IPC, please correct me if I'm wrong). I'll probably try my hand within a few weeks. I don't know how to change the axle myself so I'm still doing research on that, but I may just bite the bullet and pay someone. Appreciate the info!

Any luck on swapping in a e-locker rear end on a non? I'm interested in doing the same.

There is a switch above the shifter that would be needed also I believe. Above the round 4H,4L,2H switch. I would like to get that but don't want to swap the whole axle out.

Yeah, just bought the switch off a wrecked ranger on ebay. It looks like the e-locker wire connector comes from a harness that is for a few other rear connectors as well. there is a junction for the harness in the middle of the ranger so would also need to get that harness from the middle back along with the ForScan.

Could I please get a picture or this switch and the wiring harness (if its not too much of hassle. If can't no biggie)? My project got delay but definitely still trying this lol.

Is the non-locker axle housing different, or are the necessary holes/ports in all Ranger rear housings?
