The hub was not working when i bought the car, so i used a bolt in the hub to engange the hub permanently until i got my manual locking hubs!

Chinese. But named RD208 and RD206 (with 26 splines).
By pictures ive seen, i cant tell the difference from ARB. Also uses same instructions, wiring scheme, and even the box looks the same.
Maybe ive seen the wrong ARB diffs in pics?

Approx 50% price, and alot of happy people running them even on big wheel patrols and jeeps (not rd208, but this brand).
Hoping for sucsess ;)

Just remember to change the oil seals on the China lockers to genuine ARB seals. The Chinese seals dissolve over time.

Might be famous last words, but i am told by several people that this changed a few years ago, where they swapped to good quality seals..

Might have jinxed it all now LOL. But since i dont have ARB seals here, i think ill just carry on...
