Auburn Gear ECTED Electric Locker

Brand: Auburn Gear
Features:
Auburn Gear's ECTED (Electronically Controlled Traction Enhancing Differential) can be engaged or disengaged by flipping a switch inside your Jeep. When the switch is on, power is transmitted to the electromagnetic coil that creates a magnetic field which engages and compresses the clutch pack to lock the axle for offroad use. When the locker switch is turned off, the axle returns to limited slip mode. The limited slip mode is great for daily driving and mild offroading. The Auburn electric locker can be turned on or off on the fly while driving at moderate speeds. Locker is constructed from aircraft quality steel and comes complete with both wiring harness and switch. View user-submitted photos

Ected

Reviewer: A JeepReviews.com User from (Covington, Ohio)

Have ected on front and rear of 07jk and front will not unlock readily, it will eventually, but you can't turn well with it locked. Rear works great. Have used it for over a year and contacted auburn they told me it needed to used more.

Watch your tire size

Reviewer: A JeepReviews.com User from (NS)

Have not tried this on smaller tires but 2 ected H have sold to people on 36" tires failed. Auburn say dynamic engagement (wheel spin while being enguaged) but we can tell by looking at the damage that this can happen if not fully enguaged. The tabs can get stuck half enguaged and it will break the corners off of the tabs thet keep the unit locked. This may happen by turing on and off too much. My advise would be to turn before you need it and leave on untill wheeling is all done.
