Have heard that there is a upgrade for the rear of a gq/gu rd24 locker.
This Upgrade is in regaurds to the bearing carriers, If that makes sense.

ARB have changed where the air tube goes on to the carrier to prevent oil pumping up into the solenoid due to excessive movement allowing oil past the orings.
can't think of the names of the parts. :roll: having a mental block

Sound o.k
What i'm talking about is where the bearing press's on to the carrier, Aparantly people are using toyota carrier parts for bigger bearings? I don't know, just want to know who's done it and what parts they used?

i have the ARB carrier with the 50mmm toyota bearing but its still the same crap casting so i have made some 4140 billet housings ,i still have one in stock they are super strong i have not been able to brake one yet, i have broken a couple of ARB cases which isn't nice when it happens it usually wrecks the crownwheel and pinion at the same time
