I used to work at TJM in wollongong and have fitted a few pro lokkers and was verey impressed with them so much that I orded one for my 80 and you can hook them up to your ARB comp + they cant blow oil back (no oil seals).
how did you brake the ARB one?

Well, a mate and I were being stupid in the bush, took a GPS point at the bottom of the hill, drove around to the top and lined the GPS point up. Then armed with 3 chain saws we attempted to join the two together......... that was the easy bit. I got into a hell of a position, not by choice but due to the wet track and a 7inch lift, lots of downward body roll..........

I parked it against a tree to stop it going arse over. Spent the next 4 hrs getting my m8's heavly mod Nissan down the hill. We tried to get mine out backwards at first due to the slop etc..........

Failed ............ in the process I smashed (read Destroyed) both CV's screwed the axel off from the hub bit and snaped it in 2...... broke the long axel in two. cracked a free wheeln hub that much it popped out ..... can only imaging all the stress on the front diff...... the diff ahs torn 2 teeth off which inturn has destroyed the internals of the air locker.......

All this on day one of a long w/e, spent the next few days ridn the kids peewee 80 and drinkin..... had to pull the front appart to get her home.
