    Thanks for the shout out! Glad you like it! Post up some pics when you get it installed! @LivinLoud and I work hard on these and truly believe each and every Tacoma should have one.

    Did you look into a spindle lift? Much easier to install and increases the ride height without separating the body from the frame.

    Harrop e-locker. No worries about air lines leaking or stuck solenoids or having to add on board air to run it. Just a simple electrical connection and switch.

    Well it's been a while and have moved from NC to GA. Hoping to get connected with some new TW folks here, but here is a few things I've been up to.....

    Repaired the snorkel with a SS grill from OWL Expedition (Great business super fast on email responses).

    My friend Mike had his ARB air lockers for 7 years and never had 1 problem.

    I've been trying to figure out why a e-locker would be removed for an air locker and I can't figure it out.

    But on board air is handy AF to have so I'm not sure why that is a downside.

    Holy crap that sucker draws 30 amps. I'm really interested in how well it works out for you.

    No argument there....

    I have a portable Viair compressor that I use and have very little room under my hood for an ARB compressor. I also like the simplicity of the Harrop e-locker.

    Why would 2 air compressors be needed? My friend Mike used his ARB compressor for everything so I would assume the Viair could be used for both as well.

    Never mind, your Viair is probably portable and not permanently mounted in the truck.

    It just alligator clamps to the battery. That should be ok with it running correct?
