4 Installing the Air Locker

NOTE : Be sure to insert the correct end of the center

compression nut into the bulkhead body. The thread
has been partially relieved on the bulkhead side of the
center compression nut to visually identify its
orientation. (Fig.13.)

Figure 13.

NOTE : Excessive tightening of the center compression nut is

not necessary to form a good seal around the tube
and may damage the O-ring, the seal housing tube, or
the threads of the compression nut.

NOTE : Make sure the seal housing tube is all of the way into

the center compression nut while you are tightening
it.

c Again check that no part of the seal housing tube comes in contact

with the moving differential components. Less than 8mm [5/16”]
should be considered too little clearance. Gently bend the tube
away from moving parts if necessary.
