how to operate a diff locker?

[formallyknownas]

I know it is possible but I was wondering if there was an out of the box kit i could connect to these axles.

A simple servo would get the job done so open channel .servo mount and horn..

dont you have to brace the cable's shielding against something in order for it to engage?

 

[WickedFog]

Oh. No idea there. I don't have any 1/10 crawlers. But in the pics for those axles, the cable end on the axle is held in place with a zip tie. That seems pretty lame to me.

Yes to brace cable shield. Id go look at some shipping companies as for a piece of binding strap(metel about 1 1/2 ") cut a piece off about 1" long .use dremel tool and cutoff wheel put 2 slots in binding strap secure to rc.. figure out how to attach to horn..I can build it for you but not gonna be cheap..a piece of delrin will also work

I bet there is a bracket out there for this, but after doing a bit of a search, I couldn't find anything. I bet there is a YT vid out there someone has shared of an install of a set of these axles, but I am a bit busy at the moment to try to dig one up.

Could maybe mod the one from the trx4 to work

I stumbled onto these, but I think they go on the axle.
