Peerless 2348 locker help

Looking for info on locking my peerless 2348. Videos would be great.

Many many many ways to skin that cat there. What tooling do you have available to you?
Some people weld the axles to the inner diff housing. Some people spend the money on a long piece of keyed axle and perform a “doc locker,” which was created by @Doc Sprocket. This can be done with a welder or without, but the essential idea is to replace the spider gears with a piece of solid steel that drives straight from the bowl gear to the axle. Here is an image:

I’ve seen it done on the LSDs also where people take a piece of sheet metal and wedge them between the gear teeth, locking them.

Really it all comes down to personal preference and what you have in your arsenal. If at all possible, I’d go doc locker, after that @RCG’s locker block. (Not that the locker block is any less of a design, it’s very, very stout and reliable and I quite like it, but the advantage of the doc locker is that you get a bit extra strength with the 1 piece axle.) Of course, it’s really negligible with a big 2300 unless you intend to go full dukes of hazzard with the thing. :p

Here’s some videos:



Best of luck, and another reference is @MightyRaze. I believe he locked the 2300 in the Dirty Rat and his older build Kal-El.

Yes, I did the Doc Locker on the Dirty Rat (diff is the same as an 820)  I would definitely check out @Doc Sprocket on Sprockets' Garage on YouTube.




I'll just cut and past this now.  LOL

I personally have done the weldless Doc Locker 2.0 (still working fine today after 7 years)  A welded version of the Doc Locker 2.0 (seems the most stable "3yrs") and the fozzy locker that is also working today (4yrs)!.
