I hear the TJM air lickers is better designed than the ARB? Anyone have experience? I'm thinking of an auto locker in mine, but mine is still my DD and don't want to muck it up.

From what i've heard/know the tjm one has some style of bush to get the air into the diff and arb have O-rings so when the tjm one leaks it's be more costly to fix also people say arb's leak all the time i've had my ute for over 2yrs now and not a problem.

If its a part time IFS then just throw an auto locker in the front one of the best mods I made to mine.

from what ive read on these forums a auto lokka is a good cheap option for free wheelin hub vehicles as it causes less bind up in the front end.
im only sayin this because a air locka will once engaded lock the front end totally whether your turnin or goin straight while the auto lokka will alow the outter wheel to turn faster then the inner (while there is traction to both) and will only lock totally when traction is lost. i could be wrong thou i guess we aint all perfect :)
