Yes removing the brake will make it manual but please don’t pry it out with a screwdriver. Hold it upside down use a soft hammer like brass to tap the bottom of the housing and it will all fall out nicely. No damage no scratching or scaring of surfaces.
Thanks mate. Follow this guide if you want to fit a lokka into your Patrol (The one I fitted was a Spartan brand, but the install process is practically identical): th-cam.com/video/gQSGtD3A0h0/w-d-xo.html
I have an Auto lokka on my gu i just locket it manually and the lokka engages then when I'm finished off Roading lock it back to Auto seems fine had no idea had to get a gq hub awesome video Cheers ..
Thanks. Yes, it's a preventative because if the GU hub is not modified and is set to 'AUTO' and it locks up on hard surface (perhaps on a rainy day etc) then the locker will lock up which can lead to an accident.
Yeah so if you DON'T want to modify any hubs, just use some GQ manual hubs. If you want to utilise your GU hubs then follow this video to convert them to manual hubs, at no cost.
No me funciona, como que los engranajes se caen o algo por qué quiero ponerla en look y no tranca. Lo suelto todo armo de nuevo y entonces si tranca y después de 2 día el mismo problema
He lost me when he started hitting the mating surface of the hub with a hammer... 1 little dent in the mating surface will cause water ingress and destroy your hubs (especially after you do a water crossing, then get the car home and don't drive it for a while). I destroyed a set of hubs this way.
Cool. putting an auto lokka in the front of the gu. had an auto lokka in an old ford courier worked a treat. Cheers.
I’m doing the exact same atm mate and I had a Mazda bravo with a front lokka. How’s the gu going with the lokka?
@@patrol-naustralia4415 haven't fitted yet

Awesome video 🤙
Simple and effective modification 🤘
I can dig it 👍
once you have the auto part out. should the rest of the locker inside the hub still spin. not sure if my entire assembly is cooked.
Great video mate! Just wondering if I am able to fit a '4wd Systems' auto lokka using this method?

Great video. Is it possible to undo the modification and are there any special tips for when you are reinstalling the hubs after modifying? Thanks
Go to my channel and see the better option which will show you how to put it back to stock as well. Mick
The left one in my gq allways fall totally apart every time that i had to work bearings.

He wasn't saying you have to get gq hubs, he was using gu hubs in this video.

great vid mate. but watch `havacrack` disassemble auto locking hubs .

Hi mate, can you drive these at all times on the road and off-road etc when they’re in the locked mode?
You've essentially converted them into a manual hub. Lock them when offroad, unlock them when onroad.
yes. you can drive with them in lock on hard surfaces.. bit you might need to replace the gearbox or transfer after a couple miles....!!..
So I was doing mine but my auto hub part was stuck on with a curclip
What model patrol do you have?
Im on the same page... y60
