Default e-locker for the CTDs?

there are electronic lockers for the "weaker" axles but has anyone come across one for the AA 11 1/2? As I understand it... on their website, http://www.aam.com/index.php?s=49&item=96 this setup is not available for our axles...

I remember seeing one somewhere, they wanted a mint for it. I'll look around and see if I can find something.

I do know you can get a detroit locker

Drew, do you know if the locker setup from the power wagon will work with our rigs? I want to set mine with the same style switch for from the factory look.

steve is right. . .the power wagon uses the AAM10.5 packed with 4.56's

and no the detroit locker for our trucks is not electronic or pneumatic. it is the same locker you see being used is dragsters and still makes the loud bang when it unlocks.

I'm looking for something like the what the power wagon uses where you can engage from the dash & it acts like a posi unit otherwise. If I had one I think it would be harder to get stuck in the area's I travel...

I just hit up ARB's website, apparently they are working on one. the PDF linked says it will be here in '07, however after doing a bit of research this unit has been pushed back quite a few times.

That would be pretty wicked to be able to lock these big axles.... Especially with the power potential we have to throw at them.
