Outer Limits 4x4 Board

hi was wondering if anybody can give a rough idea on prices for a rear arb diff locker for a bj73. and if i can get one second hand are they ok is there much that goes wrong or wears on them thanks chris

You will find that there is not many second hand ARB Air-Lockers around, simply due to the fact that once you get one you don't want to get rid of it.

The ARB is about the strongest Locker you can get (Detroit may be slightly stronger) they do have some problems with the airlines but once as you put a heavier line on it doesn't seem to matter!

The only thing to do is ring around to as many 4wd stores you can, sometimes they have sale and some places sell more than others so they will be cheaper!

around 1800$ parts and labour includes compressor all lines switches and locker.

i got quoted 1400 fitted or 1170 unfitted for a hilux air locker if that helps

Buy new, older ones had problems with coming appart in the diff, need constant checking/maintenance, new loka ctr can be got for 1k if you know someone.

ive rang around the cheapest is 1120 so far so i will wait till i go back to work and get some price though our parts suppliers.

go to ARB and buy for cash over the counter, you can haggle them down to around $1050 (possibly better) if you catch them in a good mood - they're still making money on them supply only down to around 900 but don't expect them at that price, it won't happen. cash+haggle, direct from ARB.

Agree
Tell them Andrew got one for 1k just by being in an 4b group, and you want one now.

Andrew,

My brother is getting prices at the moment to get some air lockers, we have been quoted $1250 per locker (Hilux) and $360 for the compressor kit. Slightly cheaper in Brisbane.

Could you tell me the best store to contact for a beter price (for cash) as theres not much compertition for pricing up here.

Thanks.

Edit- double post !

i got my rd01 for $980
if you can get a few dudes together you can get the price dropped a little bit more but buying a few at a time

We need two rd23's to suit 85 Hilux & a compressor kit, does anyone know someone well at ARB that can give us a good price like you guys ?

PM or email me.

Not being tight, just cant afford $3000 in one hit !
