Electric 1st locker

Any thoughts or experience with electric or an ARB for the front of a 1st gen?

I have an arb up front. Works great. ARB tried and true. I didn't even know they made an elocker for the front. If you have a factory rear elocker I would put an elocker up front. Then you don't need any air lines or compressors.

 

My only qualm about the air locker is the constant running of the compressor. It's just annoying. Other than that its the superior option. Locker to locker air is just better. Having air out on the trail is pretty clutch also.

I think having dual e lockers would be a hella clean setup also though and I actually plan to go that route provided I can ever afford it.

 

You have an air leak

That would be awesome if you could retrofit a two-stage locker switch or get a matching e-locker switch. Make it look factory

 

Elockers are in no way as strong as the 8.4 with it's iron truss.

 

it has a bigger pinion and bearings too. but we talkn front lockers here.

 

huh, I didn't know there was an e-locker option for our truck's outside of the factory TRD one. Good to know

 

There is a thread about them floating around this forum. They're made by an Australian company iirc.

 

Yeah they're called Harrop, according to the link in the OP of this post that's who they're partnered with. Harrop was/is an Australian company and only made e-lockers for Hiluxes and the like, seems like they are finally branching out into the US market which is awesome.

ARB no longer has a monopoly on aftermarket selectable diff lockers for Tacomas it seems
