I was having issues with the D44 e-locker engaging after I replaced my front axle. So I tore into it and I found these "L" brackets floating around.
I have looked on web. nothing. Does anybody know what these are? Any help would be great.

Re: Jeep e-locker no workie. ?
this means its time for a big boy locker! DETROIT! HAHA jk
Re: Jeep e-locker no workie. ?
Matt - your a wealth of knowledge.
Re: Jeep e-locker no workie. ?
I think they are part of the stator assembly. If I'm looking at this right, it's the tabs that lock it into the bearing cap. It's the 4th part from the right. It's the two tabs held in place by the right hand bearing cap in the bottom pic.

Okay I pulled the locker out and found the pressure plate that those teeth broke off of.
BUT, now i need to pull the bearing. Does anyone have or know of where I can use a "clam shell" bearing puller? I know this is an easy fix, I just can't pay a dealership right now.
Re: Jeep e-locker no workie. ?
Unfortunately I do not. Anyone?
Re: Jeep e-locker no workie. ?
Thank you Jon!
It looks like it is the electronic magnetic plate that needs to be replaced. It has 4 teeth that engage to keep it straight.
What a cheep ass part that keeps it from working. It figures. : )
Re: Jeep e-locker no workie. ?
Yeah, it's the stator assembly. I've got the press to put the bearings back on just not to pull them off. 4 wheel parts has a clamshell puller kit on sale for $380.94. They're awfully proud of that damn thing.

Re: Jeep e-locker no workie. ?
Do you know if that plate is a jeep part only? And i may take you up on that offer when ready to put back together.
Re: Jeep e-locker no workie. ?
Is it a Dynatrac axle with an Eaton E-Locker or is it Chryslers version of the E-Locker???
Re: Jeep e-locker no workie. ?
Well its a stock rubi, i think its chryslers version.it is an air locker
Re: Jeep e-locker no workie. ?
Might be a dealer part then. I'm not sure. I'll do a little more research and get back to ya.
Re: Jeep e-locker no workie. ?
Wild thought... Do those tabs undergo great stress? ANY hope that epoxy would be strong enough to help by gluing them back on (so you would not have to disassemble)?
I realize the "glue it" comment may be so far out in the field, but if it could work it might save you some hassle (agreed - you'd need to prep surfaces before any epoxy application).
Could you tack-weld'm back on?
Re: Jeep e-locker no workie. ?
Looks like it might be a dealer only part. You'd have make a few calls to find out.
Re: Jeep e-locker no workie. ?
