This is a repost from the maintenance forum but it only got 5 views over there. Thought I would see if anyone could take a look here.

I finally have a garage and time, so I am trying to get to the bottom of my leaky ARB locker in the front of my 95.

The air line and compressor are not leaking as tested with soap bubbles and similar. The rear locker works and cycles the compressor every couple of locks, but the compressor shuts down appropriately. When I engage the front, the compressor just runs. I am assuming a dead o-ring in the locker.

What do I do with the two vaccuum lines that connect to the ADD sleeve and stub axle? Just yank them off?

The wiring harness has a clip that will disconnect.
The ARB air line will screw out.
The diff breather can disconnect with the hose clamp.

The two vaccuum lines are all the is vexing me.

Thanks,
Adrian

 

Pull them off. It isn't going to hurt anything. The vacuum is held by the motor. So as soon as you start the vehicle back up again the vacuum will be back. FYI, it's like a vacuum cleaner. When it's shut off there is no + or - pressure. Only when it's on and running.
