Looking for everyones opinion on lockers. I was thinking on getting ARBs front and back. Not real sure what other options I have and what benifits they offer over ARBs. This is my first jeep that I have actually went off roading in. So I am very new at that. I will be wheeling in the mountains of Washington and West Virginia so u know. |

ARB is top of the line you cant go wrong with them, another good setup is ARB rear and the DTT front plus its a little bit cheaper too |

I have a Detroit rear and an ARB up front in my TJ Had the copper air line to the "lollipop" in the ARB break this left me with only a rear locker I for this reason would NOT put an ARB in the rear you would be S.O.L. if it fails on a harder trail which is where it will fail ,if it does I could not be happier with the road manners of the Detroit They are much improved over what their reputation would lead you to believe When we "lock" the KJ it will get a Detroit rear and a Tru-Trac front I want the most reliable stuff you can get and no one can dispute that Detroit makes just that I will also spend about 1/2 or less to go this route and loose only a little performance If I need air for some thing I have a 20# CO2 which NO 12V compressor can even touch when it comes to CFM you would be hard pressed to get a belt driven set up to hang with CO2 and for the cost of that you can refill your CO2 50 times My .02 |

I have ARB's front and rear. Had them installed in Feb. Great to have them fully selectable. I did considered Detroit True Track upfront and as Jason said, you can't beat the reliability of the Detroit locker for the rear. I love my Select trak (NP242 transfer case) for the full time 4WD in the winters, and I don't think the TT would be very friendly with that combo, so the only choice for me was ARB's all around. |
