Default I was afraid of that......

...... postage is going to kill you unless you find something inside Australia.

I done work on lots of old Dodges civvy and military..... i personally never heard much on any kind of diff. lock for the old Ford split axle set up.....

May I ask why you feel you will need differential losks front and back....?

Here in Canada with the frequent slippery surfaces we always stayed away from locked diff. because on a side slope if both front and rear start slipping/spinning you start moving sideways down the side hill very fast..... while if at least one or two wheels are not slipping you tend to hold fast..... you may not move forward much but at least it keeps you out of the ditch.

I know as I drove a Dodge M 37 on a clay farm road and promptly skidded into a ditch because of the reverse pitch in a curve ans stupid military bar thread tires..... no damage but got bitten by the farmer's dog that pulled me out...... it would have been crude to shoot the bitch.....

Will be following the thread to see if they do exist for Ford early split axles.
