    Which one would you put on your rear diff, and if you feel like replying explain why.

    I like e-lockers. Just a 12v source and you’re done. No need for compressor or running air lines, etc. Some say there is a lag before engagement with e-lockers but it’s negligible in my opinion.
    Air lockers work great, just not my preference.

    What's an Aussie locker? Can you point me to the best locker available?

    Thank you for this post. Perhaps the Aussie is not for me then.

    One more thing off-puting about the ARB is that I'm reading stories of some sort of copper wire failure which has me worried.


    This is going on a 2WD Sequoia with a one wheel spinner out back. Need the locker for some loose trails and rough terrain. I nearly got stuck in the smallest and most mundane trench than ran down the side of a trail.

    ok, question could you swap out a first gen rear end for a 3rd gen ? My guess is no.
