Where did you get the chinese ARB? I’m taking my lockright out, so tired of driving with 100% locked all the time :lol:
Always thought the compressors were bigger but that one is pretty neat

Yeah, i thought about lockright first as well, but saw that one coming.

I believe it was from this shop www.china4x4extreme.com/ reccomended from some guys over at Auzzookrs..
I sendt them an email with request for price, and they responded withing a day or so..
Good price incl shipping, and it seems like they know a thing or two, not just pushing parts.. They changed the RD206 front diff outter gears to 26 splines up on request for me, just 2day extra wait :) (not stock, they had to do it upon request)

Nice, they have adapted to the market!

I have taken some pictures, but its aloot of work putting all this in at once, and i want to get it back up and running asap, so i`m afraid it will not be a great how-to with tons of pics..

All bearings got pressed in/on yesterday. ABS ring was a bastrd to press on, so the second one we just heated up hot and it slipped right on :)
Today has been going into setting up diffs, backlash, preload etc, and started installing in car.
Front diff did not go in easy, had to grind away some metal in the diff house opening to make more room for the new locker and air ring assembly, that took some time.
Diff´s are in the car now, and rear axle is complete and ready for brake bleed.. Front still lacks axles and hubs, will continue tomorrow! 12 hours in the garage today..
Tested both diffs pressurised for 30min after install, without compressor starting up again, so atleast leak free so far!
