mate,

Had this reply from ARB when I asked, sorry I should have posted up, I guess.

Hello Ian,

Matt passed you query onto me in engineering.
Yes, we will be releasing an Air Locker for the Pajero 9.5" diffs found
in the 3.5 litre vehicles and and all late model IRS vehicles.
You will most likely see them available at the same time as two
different models as one is a 31 spline and the other is a 33 spline.

This development has been delayed significantly but should still find
its way onto the market mid next year.

Best regards,

daniel

It is obviously well down on their priorities as it was going to be released 2005 then 2006 then 2007....

Don't hold your breath.....

Yeah, I think they got stung on earlier projects so did a bit of research into this one and found that the market is very marginal for this product. I mean the Pajero has a very good LSD in it from factory(most do), especialy the newer ones which have the 3.5(9.5 inch diff) in them, so you would have to be pretty deset keen on having a rear locker. I mean at around 2k fitted there are alot of other things you could do that could make up for the lack of locker. Ie. An aggressive second set of tyres could be obtained for less, and I am pretty sure ARB know this thats why they are probably sitting on it for longer till people start playing around with the later modles more that share the same diff(ie higher demand).

Ok....

It is easy to find a LSD ???, maybe a factory, or do you know aftermarket LSD for the 3.5 (9.5 inch diff) ????

Thanks

LSD was standard on Australian GLS models and upwards.
