I ordered mine about 2 weeks ago, they said that it would be about a month to get it in! Nobody had any in stock that i checked. Might just have to order and wait like i am!:(

Join the club. I asked Eric Merchant over a month ago and he said the same thing (on national backorder). He had even asked everyone he could think of or knew (which I'm sure is a lot of people) and they were all out. I'm supposed to be on his list but who knows how far down!

Try Greensburg Driveline in Greensburg PA. 724-837-8233 ask for Mark Petros. They had mine in stock at a very good price, beat my "dealer cost" at Randy's.

they cant get one for a month or so:mad: this sucks

LOL Thats what they told me when I called them. I guess I should have posted it...I wonder how many calls they've gotten in the last week? :D

Crap, if two weeks is all thats left before eaton gets another batch out I still may be in good shape. Gotta get the truck back together first!

good news! found a link to some lockers that are made by Eaton but are sold to AAM to put in the front diffs of the new Dodge power wagon and the older Hummer-1's

the place is JT parts Number is 1866-694-4190 and ask for Carl
the price shiped to my door was $716 with the two bearings. which is considerably cheaper than the actual E locker but is the same thing.... The only thing this doesnt come with is a wiring harness and the switch

I was ordering some parts from Merchant today (Misc. filters) and I see he no longer offers E-lockers (that I can find anyway). Has anyone had any luck finding any or are they still on backorder?
