So, I'm going to pick this up tomorrow, I'm really not familiar with these, any suggestions on what i should look for? Other then obvious damage. Also what is usually included with the locker, air lines, switch?

Thanks

ARB AIR LOCKER TACOMA T 100 - $400 (morgan hill)



Arb air locker is in great shape. Includes all new seals and carrier bearing still in packages. Only thing it needs is a new copper line for the seal housing. This thing has seen almost zero use.

RD 89 fits Tacoma's 1995-2004

 

Feels good don't it.

 

I noticed the dust guard on one of my week old OME nitro chargers fell off so it just slides freely over the entire shock...and while I was inspecting, I noticed these little guys in my tire.

 

Ouch

 

Ouch I had a roofing nail in mine a while back

 

I pulled the first one out. I don't think it made it through the tread. I'm not messing with the other one though lol. If it starts to leak I guess it will make my decision to get a new set easier.

 

Have those same tires. Can't count how many nails they've endured. Had to replace one around February cause a 6 inch carpenter nail decided to embed itself in it.

 

Yeah I've out these through some shit lol. Seriously sharp roads covered in shale and apparently some nails/screws as well. A few lugs are missing chunks but they're holding air and the sidewalls are perfect. I did notice one is showing signs of dry rot though :/

 

^I run an RD 89 and I love it. Like you already know, because of it's design be sure to change out ALL of the seals before installing it. (Piston seal too) If not included, you'll need a switch for your compressor and for the locker... as well as the wiring, solenoid and pressure switch. Those can be ordered at most 4x4 shops. Other than that, it works every single time the instant you hit the switch. You're gonna love it. Great price, BTW!

 

Painted my skid plate! Don't worry guys, I don't wheel much, so they paint should last a few months at least.

 

dry rot? you not drive it very often?

 

dropped off my truck for OME install.....



If all turns out well I'm getting a pretty damn sweet deal.

 

I drive it daily, but the previous owner didn't. It was a family of doctors that would only drive it after big snowstorms. Otherwise they drove their Prius and Lexus around lol. So it sat a lot.

 

eww...no bueno. glad someone came along and snatched her up haha

 

Hell yeah. I paid blue book value for it, which was still too much IMO, but I've put 30k miles on it so far and have had no issues. That can't be said for any other car I've owned.

 

You got a steal if you paid BB. Down in Cali, $2-3k over BB is normal for a good one.

 

I know there is probably a better place to put this but threw it in here because I know there are a few people that are within driving distance of this deal. Might be worth a look. I just can't justify the cost right now.. but someone else might be able to
