    rear detroit locker price??

    Has anyone fitted a detroit in the back on a D1?
    I am interested in the price difference between a detroit and a maxi drive set up.
    Of course i'll have to buy maxi axles or similar if i put a detroit in anyway. so not sure if it really is a cheaper option.
    I've emailed a couple of places for quotes but no answers yet so thought one of you guys might know. i'l probably still go maxi drive in the front

    Different State Different Diff

    Ive been quoted $1800 for a rear ARB Locker with compressor Fitted to my D2 (No Axles)
    I know its a different setup to what your looking for but it cant be to far from what your chasing

    I spoke to these guys, and the supplied price for a Defender was around $1000 from memory. Is a D1 the Rover axle at the rear though?

    Still unsure what I'm going to put in mine though....

    $1870 for maxi drive lockers and comes supplied with axles.
    or it would seem about $1000 for a detroit plus another 890 for axle upgrade....not alot in it really. for some reason i thought detroits were alot less money than that?
    i guess not canging the axles would keep the price down a bit, but standard are going to break under stress with lockers fitted at some point and i guess i'd rather not have that worry when i'm out bush.

    Supply-only, their price is fine when you think it includes $650 worth of axles, BUT the quotes I got for fitting them over the ARB or the Detroit made them significantly dearer.
