Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Hello,

First let me introduce myself....I've been on the offroading world for the past 5 years, mostly with Land Rovers. These last few months, I saw the light, and after some research I decided to put Y61 axles on my Range Rover proto mostly since upgraded Landy axles will not hold more then 36" tyres without breaking. Quick look on ebay and got a pair of axles from a 2003 Patrol from the UK. Few weeks later and axles are now enjoying the sun in Malta

After a few considerations, and a new front ARB locker, I'm considering the idea of converting rear factory diff lock to air activation, in order to have a single system. Has this been done before or is there any writeups?

Will post some pics of the RR in due course

Done some more reaserch and decided to stick with vacuum. Can any one point out some aftermarket vacuum solenoids?

thanks,

bob

not worth trying to replace/mod the system, as it works. Clean the lines, replace the rubbers and fit a Mac valve and use it. Its a great thing.

whats a mac valve reddo

If any one has a problem with their Nissan Locker not engaging/disengaging or delays in these actions its caused by the factory Hitachi vacum Solenoid being faulty , the answer is to replace the solenoid with a MAC 12volt vacum solenoid made in the USA and supplied by Pneutech in Ringwood Melb , you will also need three nipples and a filter also suppleid by them , once fitted the Nissan Locker then engages /disengages almost instantly everytime , cost of approx $150 part # 45A-GC1-DDBA-1BA-M532F

we also took out the switch in the dash, and replaced it with a TJM lockers switch. So, both the TJM front locker, and the vac locker are side by side.
