Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Well I rang Geelong Diffs today to see whats taking so long.
Seems they have got quite a few orders and are doing a run of 30 units !!!
He says they will be completed by Feb 15th but not all are sold so they will have some for sale.
These are for the front 8" 3.0 or 3.5 V6 Gen 1 & Gen 2 super select and non super select.
He reckons about $1500 per unit.

Giddy there. I was wondering where this was at. Just noticed this sticky so wanted to see if they also fitted the Gen 3 NM 2000. Seems like they do from reading but not 100% sure.

Mate the front ARB locker RD110 has now been out for a few years so for the same amount of money I'd go for one of those hands down.
Back then the Detroit was the only option but given the choice I'd go an ARB every time. With a Gen 3 you don't have the luxury of running manual hubs a must IMHO when running a front auto locker. You loose the super select function with these but not with the ARB as it only activated when you switch it on.
Now you have the ARB, Lokka and a custom Detroit (but these are made to order and cost as much as an ARB fitted).
To answer you original question the front 8" diff is the same from Gen 1 to current.

Great, thanks for the reply. I know ARB have done the Air Locker for a while. I was one of those reading one of your post years ago to get support letters written to ARB so I'm glad they got there. It funny you should advocate the Air Locker as there are many differing opinions and I have been tooing and frowing about which way to go but your advice is well recieved so cheers for that. I didn't know I could put free wheeling hubs in Gen 3 and I expected I would need to as well. I like the idea of keeping the super select as not every hill needs a full on every thing locked to the hilt attack :-) and todatae it's meant running out the winch which I'm hoping to reduce with a front locker.

Now. On to the saving up part. Better get onto it and get the locker fitted

Thanks for your advice
