OK, 4.88 upgrade, then about the locker

are you planning to do your gear upgrade yourself or
will you outsource it to a professional.

Also, can gear upgrade be done while keepin the current
tire size? If so, do I have to use 2nd gear to start?

Since it is good time to add locker while upgrading gear, what locker should I choose.
I see 3 types

electric (Eaton)
air (ARB)
mechanical (ox trax locker)

From what I heard, air locker is the most reliable one.
Why is it? is it because electic locker is more vulnerable to water?

My first impression is electric locker is better since
air locker need to run long air hose between compressor
to the front and rear axle and maybe it will cause more
trouble than a simple electric wire used by electric locker.

Also, how about the all mechanical locker. If it does not use air compressor or electric power, maybe it is more reliable?

If you have a choice between free limited-slip differential and on demand complete locker, I guess
you prefer the true complete locker, right?

ARB是想锁就锁,机械锁是一直都锁着的,踩离合器的时候才断开。 -杀雨- 给 杀雨 发送悄悄话 杀雨 的博客首页 (118 bytes) () 10/07/2009 postreply 13:18:15
