The ARB Air Locker is a pneumatic locking differential that uses air to facilitate the locking of both axles. This action converts your differential from a conventional open to a full spool type axle supplying 100% power to both wheels to keep you going through the worst terrain. ARB onboard air compressor required to activate Air Lockers. Sold Separately.
Everything went well! directions easy to follow. I had put the rear lockers in last year, again with no issues. Would not attempt this if you have no mechanical ability and patients. You do need some special tools torque wrench, axel housing spreader, back lash indicator, heat gun.
Works great and doesn't affect driving or turning when not engaged unlike auto lockers that affect how sharp you can turn. You never know it is there until you flick the switch.
I have ARB Air Lockers in my 04 TJ. I love the on-board air compressor that came with my setup. I was able to use my lockers the day after I got them installed at Browns Camp in the Tillamook State Forest. The only thing that I would change about the system is to be able to select which axle I want to be locked.
Q: Does this locker replace the carrier in a Dana 30, or is a separate carrier still required? Answer this question
A: Yes it is a full carrier.

Q: Will this lock fit a 2007 Ford Explorer? i think the front differential is a Dana 30 super 27 spline Answer this question
A: The ARBRD100 will not work on the 2007 Explorer Super 30 front end because the spider gears are not machined for the stub axle retainers on the IFS front end.
