They are well proven, very reliable and no o-ring problems.

You cant realy beleive this is going to start a Price war do you :roll: I dont know about the price on the TJM locker but i imagine its going to be similare money anyway.

Speaking of Price wars its great how all these winches like Brawn and T-MAX have made WARN drop their price :roll:

In my Experiances People who want good Quality buy Good Quality and dont mind paying for it. People who want to get a cheap deal buy crap and then wish they paid for the Quality in no time.

Well there you go unless that includes the compressor and tank then its allready more than an ARB.

I agree this won't drop prices, TJM and ARB both sell through dealers only, this set-up borders on price fixxing in my opinion! the dealers agree on a minimum price and they stick to it, there were a couple of people in Sydney selling ARB's at a reasonable price, one of the ARB dealers complained to ARB and ARB stopped supply! nothing will change until any workshop can ring up ARB or TJM and order a locker direct.

had a look at the first GU one yesterday.. its gettin fitted to a mates GU next week.

Looks good, although the setup that activates the locker doesnt look the strongest (the bit that slides across to mve the gear)...

Only time will tell...
