    Not that this will be an upgrade I can afford to do anytime soon but have any of you guys put arb lockers front and rear on your 05+? I honestly have a set of skids from lca to gas tank as the next on my list item, followed by SOS front plate bumper but I am considering an onboard air set up and wonder what you guys have had experience with in that department. I want to be able to air up some tires with it and also run my future purchased lockers front and rear with it. Suggestions, comments, cuss words all welcomed. I am seriously considering installing it in the toolbox on my truck for weather proofing and security and running the quick connect hoses through the side of the tool box for hoses to use for airing up tires and (god help me) air tools on the trail. Let me know and thanks.

    I am in the midst of my own OBA, using inexpensive alternatives to the name brands. I am going to use it for now to fill tires and inner tubes at the river but plan to put an ARB locker on in the future.

    I didn't know you wanted an ARB. Thought you liked bragging you do it all with open diffs!

    Which compressor did you go with? I thought it was a name brand.

    Yea I've always wanted a locker. It'll let me take some obstacles at lower speeds and save from some damage/let me go farther and on harder trails. It's a Smittybilt compressor (brand name enough, but not Viair/ARB/etc) but my setup should work with the MV-50, MV-90, Harbor Freight, and other compressors.

    The smittybilt takes a hard to find fitting, which I got 3 on the way. Jon said he wanted one.
