nice, think I read that somewhere. guess it shows how long I've been away from lockouts (been running flanges for about 4 years now) :sonicjay:

My slugs have that ability.

When the Yukon lockouts fail, they lock when failed vs unlock like other lockouts.
I had heard this and when I installed mine I tried to figure out what makes them different. I don't see it. From a theory standpoint, they work like any other lockout where there are face teeth on 2 slugs that engage with each other. They spring to engage and cam from the rotating knob to disengage. So, what typically fails? Either the splines strip out or the face teeth shear or round off, or the spring breaks or the rotating knob quits turning.

To say that when it "fails" that it remains locked is a mystery to me. That aside, they are a simple design and have held up well.:thumb:

Those super joints are a royal pita. I got one half done lol. Trying to get the cross installed with the full circle clips is nearly impossible :sonicjay:

Victory is mine. Have no idea what I did, but it is assembled :sonicjay:. Also got my cut MTR back. It was an okay repair. Def a trail spare only.
