UAZ Hunter SUVs, supplied in the "Expedition" and "Trophy" trim levels, are no longer equipped with a rear axle differential lock. Previously, this option was available for these versions and was quite popular among off-road enthusiasts.
The reasons for this decision have not been officially announced, however, it is assumed that this is due to a reduction in the cost of the car and optimization of production processes in the current economic situation.
The differential lock increased the Hunter's cross-country ability on difficult sections, but at the same time increased the complexity of the design and the price.
For those who plan to use the UAZ Hunter in severe off-road conditions, the lack of a factory lock may be a reason to install third-party solutions. The market offers a wide selection of locks of various types and manufacturers that can be installed in the Hunter's rear axle.
