Re: Locker install, diy
I agree with these guys, Marvin. Having seen a lockright installed in a
couple hours (at a campsite, no less), I'd definately say it's a diy
project.

Re: Locker install, diy
The instructions were less than informative, I had two extra parts (metal
ring thingies) and when I installed the locker I wasnt sure if they went in
or not. It drove ok without them but after some asking around I figured out
they needed to go back in so I installed them.
