Outer Limits 4x4 Board

im going to be putting a locker in my 80 soon, iv been told by some mates that TJM is the go, but a lot of people say ARB is still be best, whats evry ones view on them, and what is the price difference, if any


cheers duck

At the end of the day they do the same job. So no difference really.

someone will confirm this, but doesnt the arb locker have some seal that has to be changed. whereas the tjm one doesn't

also this will need conferming but dose TJM offor a warrentee on any size tire?

Yeah aparently tjm ones have less moving parts so less things to F up and yeah thats a good Q about tyres as reading the arb stuff and by that if you drive it in cases where a locker wouldn't be needed it will be covered but if used in a "Hard" place it won't be WTF but that being said mine can be spining one wheel on a hill and i'll just throw it in hasn't stuffed front of rear yet and it ain't always at low rev's

I'm looking for lockers for my 80, and have been wondering the same thing. The most salient points I have been told so far are:

i) ARB have been making their locker for 40 years vs TJM for less than 5 years.

ii) TJM are $500 more expensive on a full F&R install compared to ARB (Prices from TJM and ARB respectively)

This is where people are poorly informed. The TJM locker has actually been around for a long time. Im not sure how long but its over 10 years. Possibly 20. It just wasnt called a Pro-Locker. It was called a Macnamara Locker and was not owned by TJM at that time.

And i dont think the ARB locker has been around for 40 years either. Maybe 20-30.
