    I am guessing with lockers you want to be simple instead of
    being complicated. Like with ARB you have air compressor and air tubes. The
    less moving part the better.

    Thats how I feel anyway, others dont mind. The simpler the better as far as I am concerned, if it wasnt impossible to steer locked, I would spool the front!

    Ok I am just trying to figure out
    what to do when I get my sh!t regeard,
    Looking to lock the front and back. Because I have sport version which is just
    open. I am wondering if I should get ARB and back Or get ARB/ Detroit in the
    back. So i know if the air compressor fails in the front I know I have a least
    one locker.

    I would absolutely go detroit in back, i love it. If you can hamdle being a BAMF and squeaky tires every once in a while, Detroit is for you.

    no. if you're just coasting along it isn't locked. if you're accelerating/holding speed, its locked.

    No, its a mechanical locker, no wires, no lines, no nothing, just a ratcheting type system that engages when you're on the gas and when you le off it also lets off and the wheels spin free.

    No problem on questions man, i was right there not too long ago, It all about the journey

    SO when you turn a corner do you let off the gas. so you dont break a axle? Or is that what the sounds is you were talking about.

    Well youd have to have a real shitty axle or a helluva lot of power to break an axle on a corner, but yes, you let off around corners for a smooth transition, or you gas it and chirp tires and leeaan!

    I thought the biggest rule was to buy your axle before taking the other off?
