Put the Power to the Ground with Auburn Gear Lockers and Gear Sets
All the power your engine makes means diddly-squat if you can’t use it to move along the trail, climb rocks, or rock out across the desert. Install an Auburn Gear ECTED Locker or Max Lock differential and a new set of Auburn Gear ring and pinion gears and get that horsepower to the ground where it will do some good.
ECTED Max-Locker
The ECTED Max-Locker differential is a selectable locker design that allows drivers to go from a limited-slip to full-locker with the flick of a switch—perfect for a dual-use race car or off-roader. The electronically controlled differential features a unique cone-clutch design with aircraft-quality 9310 heat-treated billet steel gears. The ECTED lockers operate quietly without any shift fork or pins required change the mode.
Max Lock Full Locker
The Max Lock is an automatic full locker design that locks and unlocks based on traction conditions. It provides power to both wheels like a full spool, but unlocks when cornering as one wheel spins faster. When you’re navigating through extreme terrain or rock crawling and one of the wheels is in the air, the wheel on the ground will receive the engine power and keep you going. The Max Lock is designed for open (non-limited slip) differential cases.
Ring and Pinion Gear Sets
Auburn Gear makes Ring and Pinions for a wide range of performance applications. Each set includes perfectly matched ring and pinion gears machined to tight tolerances to eliminate excessive noise, vibration, and premature gear wear. Gear ratios are available from 3.42:1 to a super stout 5.38:1.
Auburn Gear also makes Master Ring and Pinion Installation Kits that have everything required for a hassle-free gear swap. The kits come with shims, bearings, and hardware. Auburn Gear’s even nice enough to toss in assembly lube and a tube of gasket maker. Exact contents of each kit vary by application.

• Chrysler 9.25 inch
• Dana 30, 44, 60, 80
