“The Ford 9-inch Zip Locker is available in 28, 31, and 35 spline axles. These lockers all come with a two-year collateral damage warranty. This means if the unit breaks for any reason we will cover up to $2,000 worth of related expenses,” said Dale Coulson of Yukon Gear & Axle.

“This could be applied to labor, towing, bearings, or gears, we will cover it. We do not have any exclusions as far as racing or competition. We offer a six-year warranty on the unit itself. For an additional cost we do have a lifetime warranty available,” Coulson continued.
