Adding a 2nd locker

[Lud]

Got my Jeep over to Lurch's yesterday and got to try out the new (to me) trailer.

Currently have the front end apart exept for the gears and carrier as the backlash has to be measured before it gets taken out.

In the open carrier's place is going an ARB air locker. I'm also replacing the stock shafts (inners and outers) and ujoints with chromoly shafts and bigger u joints. I've got the switch and solenoid already done in the Jeep so as soon as the Arb is in we'll be able to see if its working properly. Should be a nice addition to the rear ARB I already have.

I was gonna take pics and keep you all updated on this but I just wanted to get the ARB in and get rolling again that I didn't stop. I got frustrated and got stuck in spots but with help (Lurch) I got it done.

Had a few hangups most notably have the copper tube air line to the seal housing for the ARB snap off at the base. Had to order a new one of those. That and I got to learn how not to put brake calipers back on.


Everything's working great now. Can't wait to hit the trails.

Way to go...Diving into unkown territory is nerve racking and time consuming. But you're better for it. Since you had good oversight, you can have good confidence in your work.
