Got an ARB in rear toy axle, I like it. Think Eaton makes an E-selectible for Danas too. Haven't heard Ox being worthless but never paid much attention to them as they don't make for Toys.

I don't think you will be let down with the ARB, but I'm rocking Toy axles f/r with an Aussie in the front.

Heard the same thing about ARB airlines really gonna depend on how you route them. I learned the hard way about driving over downed trees, ripped a break hardline right out. Thanks Trailyota for the rescue.

Best locker for the front is a selectable, ARB IMO. Rear is whatever.

Probably just put a Detroit/Spool combo if its a trail rig only.

I just typed a post and lost the whole thing.

For my usage rear selectable is the best for my set up with only f/r selectibles being superior. If I had a trailer queen I'd probably look at it differently. Yes I had a rear autolocker for years.

i already put a detroit in the rear

I've run detroits, Aussies, arbs in both my f and r........ I am happy with my dual detritus now

ARB front and rear here. They work good, with few problems.

I have an Aussie in the front with manual hubs. These are cheap and reliable and work great. ( 95 4Runner)

I would highly recommend not using the compressor you use to operate the ARB locker for airing up your tires too. Get a portable compressor or a separate on-board air system for your tires. Airing up takes a while and the when the compressor continuously runs for several minutes it gets really hot and that will reduce it's lifespan by a lot (I know people who have overheated theirs filling up tires and ruined it). If you only use it just for a few seconds at a time just for operating the locker, it will last practically forever. I would recommend to anyone to save ~$150 and get the small ARB compressor to operate the locker(s) and use the money you saved for a dedicated compressor for your tires.

I run Aussies front & rear. and its my daily driver. i have not run into any issues with it being driven all the time. but then again, i dont live in the snow.
