Welcome Cora and the Torq Masters crew. Enjoying the locker. Liking how I can feel that its working in 4wd, but does not make it harder to drive. This locker found the sweet spot in its design. Appreciate the way you listened to customers and brought this new locker to market. Made in the USA!

Welcome from the mitten. You and I spoke on the phone when I called there, not some crony that doesn't have the answers, you answered the phone and that's a solid business practice in my book. Thank you for giving our little 500 some attention and I sincerely hope it pays big for you. Thanks Cora.
P.S. Hope we weren't too bad of a pita. :)

Thank you Cora and welcome from central south Mississippi and I have your locker but have not had a chance to install it yet but I will as soon as possible. God bless you and your company and God bless America and the men and women that keep it the land of the free.

Thank you all for the warm welcome!!!

There's a lot of time and effort that goes into producing a new model of the TORQ Locker, thank you all for your patience!! Our broach (custom tooling to cut the axle splines) was the biggest headache, but now that we have it, production runs will take about 3 weeks. We are currently running the TL-HONDA now. If anyone wants to be added to our wait list, please shoot me an email. Cora @ Torqmasters.com We will of course make the announcement on our Facebook page and on the forums.

There are so many forums out there, it's hard for us to keep up, but this forum is totally different than the corporate owned Jeep forum's I'm used to. It's refreshing, and why we decided to support the forum as a sponsor.

The quickest way to get in touch with us is typically email, Cora @ Torqmasters.com for general technical support but for very specific Honda P500 technical support, for now, I think the best resource will be your fellow forum members who already have installed the TORQ Locker, and the in-depth install videos done by forum members. Our Install manual is very specific and has a ton of photos, thanks for the help with the manual @JWB

A little about Torq-Masters (If you haven't read our website)

In 2014 I (Cora) acquired Torq-Masters and have since grown the company, product lines, and customer base through new markets, supporting off-road events and organizations and mostly through word of mouth on social media. I was a sponsored rock crawler of Aussie Locker, the main product line of Torq-Masters for years and knew the founder of the company very well. When the founder, Bill Cole, was looking to retire, I stepped in, quit my day job as an architect and went all in and purchased the company. We are based in Rochester NY, all of our Locker manufacturing is Made in the USA in Rochester. We have Aussie Locker and TORQ Locker models available for Jeeps, trucks, Toyota's, Can-Am and Polaris. We have Infinity Series Chromoly Axles shafts for Jeeps.

I'm always working to fix problems using our background in rock crawling and off-road racing. I see lots of areas we can help the SXS and ATV market. Big thanks to the Honda SXS forum for their enthusiasm for the P500, it's only because of the shear number of emails and requests that we thought the TL-HONDA would be financially feasible for us.

I love seeing the videos and tags on Facebook and Instagram of happy TORQ Locker customers with their freshly installed Lockers. It really is a game changer to have true 4WD. I'm glad we can help!!!

This is such a great story and I wish you the best in the future.

We have all been wracking our brains trying to come up with a way to get true 4x4 on these machines and we all greatly appreciated that you stepped up and made it happen. Your locker is a simple and affordable solution and I just love mine.

Welcome and thank you .I have an Aussie locker in my Cherokee and it has held up well. I will be ordering one for my 500 as soon as I get a big enough pile of cash. Best of luck to you and your company.

Awesome!! I love seeing our full size 4x4 cusomers in the UTV market. Makes it much easier to explain how the locker works when there's folks on the forum familiar with our Aussie Locker.

Welcome Torq-masters and Cora from Buffalo- I was pleasantly surprised at when the product arrived super quick and had our neighbor Rochester in the From address! :) So far so good in my limited testing- can't wait to test it on the trails for real.
