Not the E, But my TJ has OX lockers front and rear. They have been great since I got rid of the cables and converted to Air operation. I would venture a guess that’s their electric version is just as stout

i have the electric Ox Locker and i have used it once since i had it installed and it is nice to have. i went this direction based on the fact that if the cable breaks i have the lockout device to get me home.

How did you run/set up the switch? did you use the ox switch, or set it up a different way?
I am wanting the Ox lockers with Electric actuation, and trying to decide on factory aux switches, or trying to make a custom plate for the cubby to mount the Ox switches.

i went with the factory aux switch and added a light to know when the locker is engaged. be advised, when going to the electric version, you will need to make sure the system is built for the ground to be the switching mechanism not the 12 volt power.

i wired a relay in to the system to where the power for the switch was hot and when you pushed the aux button, the switch would create the pathway in the relay for the ground in order for the electrical solenoid to operate. where in Tennessee do you live?

if everything works out for next summer, the plan is for me to bring out the gladiator to do some playing in that area and i will get in touch with you to see if we can meet up and go play.
