i installed an aussie in a 8.8 thats under my bronce II. the aussie was used and i installed it into a new carrier. i checked it with a feeler guage to make sure everything was up to specs and did the spin test of the tires to make sure everything was working properly. I took it out to DPG and drove it for a while with no problems. Ive had it for about 3 months now and its starting to give me problems. when driving down the road and takin corners i can here and feel the locker unlock. its kinda jerky when it goes in and out. the last two days when i hit the gas hard the locker has made a loud noise and jerked like its not locking in properly but behaves normal on takeoff when easy on the gas. i have jacked the rear axle up and done the spin test again and it passed the test fine. have any ideas of what could be wrong before i tear into it this week to inspect it?
 
Call Aussie and ask to speak to the owner. He will pick up the phone and talk to you about it. I forget his name at the moment, also if I can find his cell I will post it back. Explain everything and he will tell you whats wrong.
 
x2 call aussie and the owner himself will see to it that it is taken care of just make sure u have the measurements for the side gear spacer to pin clearance and the gap in the middle of the locker if its in spec. he will send u another one.
