I just have this fear that Torq-masters may have under estimated how badly this is wanted and didn't make enough to cover the demand.

I realize they will be making more but I really wanted this installed when I go down to Hatfield Mcoy's next month.

It's not the end of the world if I miss out on the first batch , I can wait :(. I know this much , when they are available, I will be hitting the buy button that day :)

I second that motion that Chooglin should be in the initial run of lockers. He got the ball rolling on this.

Chooglin is the man and definitely deserves one of the first. It wasn't that big of an issue for me until he started b****ing about it. :D
I didn't send them anything until late in the game and don't think I even got a response. I'm probably way down the list if I'm even on it. That's cool as long as I have one installed for the takeover next year I'll be happy. Kinda want to see what others encounter on the install to make it easier for me later. ;)

For me the deciding factor is power steering. I really don't want it for a few reasons, but if you combine the price of PS with the locker it's another $1000 into a machine that can be replaced with a new RS1 or even Talon at this point.

But does a talon have a front diff lock and power steering??????



Sorry couldn’t resist.

Lol , maybe I'm just freaking out about not getting one , but I have a feeling they will sell out quick.

I think you're just freaking out. I'm sure they produced enough to meet the amount of emails they received and probably a good bit more for the stragglers that will jump on board after the release. Wouldn't be a good business practice to under deliver and I'm sure they're looking to recoop some of the money spent on R&D. ;)

DUDE!! :eek: Dangerous territory there buddy! Unless ur not married anymore, then it goes without saying....sorry... voices in my head again:)
I'm safe she doesn't read the forums.

I'm thinking of getting the locker just for those few times in the spring thaw that it gets really nasty on the trails, oh plus it will just be cool to have it in there always waiting to help dig through some stuff and pass "others" on the trail.

$429 sounds good although I'm NOT on the list as of yet.

So I'm confused. You are buying a locker for a P500 but you list "other brand" as your machine. ????????

I believe he has said his 500 is on it's way to the dealership right now.

Gotcha. I guess I missed that part.
Our P500 is sitting up north in the garage with all his buddies (gocart, KQ400, raptor 350) just waiting for us.
Next time I go up with the enclosed trailer I'll see just what it will take to get it in the trailer so I can bring it back and forth and have more wrenching time on it.

Locker effort is just another notch in @Chooglin ‘s. Club Contributor banner. Persistent pays off!
Yes another fine job, I'm so glad I just recently bought our P5 so I didn't have to wait as long as others.

That locker is going to change for the better the way some people look at the Pioneer 500's.

We have limited need of it but more and more I'm thinking I'd rather have it and not need it than to need it and not have it.
