TOY: Rumors of Marlin's Axles



Geez. This is one of my pet peeves on the internet -- misinformation spreads
when picking up the phone is so easy to do. Karl, I'm not chewing you out --
any of us could have picked up the phone.

I though that this was wrong, so I called Marlin. As of 12:00 Noon PST, Marlin
was NOT running electric lockers, and has not run them previously. He's impressed
with their design, but unwilling to spend the coin.

Marlin's truck has an FJ-80 hi-pinion front and a V6 rear, both equipped with
ARB's and 4.88 gears.

See how easy it was to get to the bottom of this?
