4x4 Posi-Lok replaces the thermal linear actuator with a cable operated actuator that puts the driver in control of the engagement from inside the cab. After engaging the transfer case, a one inch pull of the 4x4 Posi-Lok cable slides the shift fork and collar to connect the right front axle to the intermediate shaft and 4-wheel drive is engaged! Simply reverse the procedure to disengage 4-wheel drive. 4x4 Posi-Lok also works great with lockers! When the front axle is locked, you can disengage the passenger side in order to make turns without wheel hop.
What is 4x4 Posi-Lok? 4x4 Posi-Lok is the patented (Patent No. 5,605,213) cable activated engagement device designed to replace the failure prone OEM (Original Equipment Manufacture) thermal electric front axle engagement systems. 4x4 Posi-Lok is not a posi-trac or locker. 4x4 Posi-Lok is simple and easy to install and allows you to engage your front axle from inside the cab. After engaging the transfer case, a one-inch pull of the 4x4 Posi-Lok cable ensures the front axles are connected. This system puts the driver in direct control of the 4-wheel drive front axle engagement.
What are the benefits of 4x4 Posi-Lok?
How difficult is it to install a 4x4 Posi-Lok? 4x4 Posi-Lok can be installed under two hours with simple hand tools.
Why should I replace my O.E. actuator? The weak link is eliminated. Thermal actuators tend to fail for various reasons leaving you stuck! The 4x4 Posi-Lok puts the driver in control of the 4 wheel drive engagement. The 4x4 Posi-Lok provides the benefit of 2 wheel drive low range by simply not engaging the front axle. This is beneficial on the trail when maneuvering in tight corners or when maneuvering trailers/campers.
