    Lock the front and rear while you do it and you'd really be smoking all 4 tires

    Plus I think ARBs are a little cheaper than the Harrops but I might be wrong

    I have that and many others. Pretty sure you can get a Arb compressor and the air locker for cheaper than that e locker and you'll get on board air.

    Yeah OBA is pre-req to Air Locker but what is the advantage to air locker over elocker?

    They are a lot cheaper.

    Some say air is more reliable then the e-lockers some say the other way around. I think it's personal preference as far as that goes but you can't deny the added benefit of on board air, that's a big plus in my book

    I think the air locker engages immediately. The e locker can sometimes take a second. Not sure if that's the case for after market e lockers though.

    So is the CV Bushing the replacement for the needle bearing?

    Says it can't be added when using an ARB locker.

    Then I'd go with the ARB and save some $$$...I've never really heard a solid argument for one over the other; other than OBA and price difference
