Has anyone ordered one of these yet? I need a replacement housing and thought I would try it. It appears to be less expensive than purchasing a housing and swapping the internals over. If anyone has any insight please let me know. Thanks

From the website

"For Broncos NOT equipped w/E-locker from the factory, see M-14489-BR for wiring/switch kit. If changing axle ratios M-9603-B23 or M-9603-B27 are required for module and speedometer recalibration. Note: ***FRONT AND REAR AXLE RATIOS MUST BE THE SAME***"

I've got that exact same one installed in mine right now, although it was a Black Diamond takeoff.

Yeah - long been the common advice around here, if you are looking to upgrade to a locker, or regear and have the welded ring gear -- this is a better route to go.

Thank you for the responses. I have a Badlands, but my axle housing is bent due to an individual hitting my drivers rear tire. This looks to be an exact replacement. Thanks

I bought one a year and a half ago and installed in my Base. Best price I found on them was through Jegs. It just bolts in and works. I wired the locker through a manual switch and relay. Works as it should.

Dana HD rear is an idea also, just be done upgrading... too bad you don't want the 4.7 gear... might've made you a deal...

Too bad your too far away or I would be interested in taking you up on the offer for the axle. Would you happen to have the front available also?

I will be doing both and selling as a set. I did not get the money for it last year as my finance is tied to performance. I will be doing it in '26 but if i had a buyer lined up for my stuff I'd pull the trigger after our yule tide ride.
