i want to put a mini spool in the rear of my vit.
where do i get one from?
and roughly how much are they.
are the mini spools the same between vit and sierra?
do i have to get one from the states?
i also want to put one int he front eventually.
i am planning on using the sierra center with the mini spool in the front diff, and getting the later model 26 spline front axle shafts top suit.
thanks for any help.
Steve

It locks both axles together all the time. Doesn't unlock at all.

It's like welding only it can be removed if necessary.

I wouldn't say lowrange have 'quick' shipping, but their service is usually really good. My latest package took 13 days to arrive from the date it was sent (sent priority as well). I received a package from the UK the other day that took 5 days (including a weekend), now THAT is fast.

Package was around $100? But postage wasn't cheap and the package wasn't big, so I'd expect faster shipping. Previous orders (anywhere from $100 - $700) were about the same.
But let me point out that I'm not bagging lowrange here - the package was dated 29 June shipped, so lowrange got it off fast enough, but it arrived on 12th July, which is their shipping company's fault.

Typically the problem with postage is here in Australia.
I have had goods take 4-5 days to go from ACT to Qld, but had goods arrive from the US in 3-4 days.
For what we pay for postage in the Country, alot of the time we get pretty lousy service.

Hadm boat down, cost was huge as had to do daily hire, boat and crew. Rang melbourne importers for the part, was told they had it in stock. I told them I do not care about shipping cost, when you hang up, call a taxi and get it to the airport asap, airfreight to town, should be same day arrival that way, engineers will work on it during the night so the vessel is going in the morning, no dramas I'm told.
No parts, rang and asked, was told, hold ya horses, we have other things to do, (hire vessel, 5k a day) ended up taking 8 days, with me ringing everyday.
Ozzy posted it, retards.
I ordered parts from Adelaide, a half hour flight, O'night in the bus, 3 days ago, rang, told, sent via ozzy post.
lol 13 days from the states may seem a long to\ime, but 8 days from melbourne to here, ( 12 hour car run) is very quick
Good ole Ozzy post.

That's shit.
The package I got from the UK was ordered Wednesday night and was in my hands at my house on the following Monday morning. DHL express international.
