I’m getting a Carbon 44/60 installed with Eaton eLockers. The front locker would not disengage during the shop’s checkout. After a bunch of troubleshooting and Carbon building a repro axle, they found that Eaton changed their locker. The spec change was not published.
Passenger side taper of the locker is a few thousands of an inch different. Didn’t work with the Carbon axle shafts, and possibly other brands/stock axle shafts impacted.
Carbon re-tapered an axle shaft, overnighted it, and the shop should finish install it this week. It worked well in the mock-up.
Wanted to give people a heads-up if they bought a Eaton eLocker in 2019 that won’t disengage.
