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.

thanks for the info on that. ill look into it.

im not worried about the front for daily driving cause i have hubs. its just that every rig ive built has been welded or lock rights or detroits. ect i just want a selectible for once. i wont even turn it on tell i need it but that way i can drive around with hubs in and turn like the hubs arent even in. idk its just so much better to have selectible in my oppinion. i just put a detroit in the rear (14 bolt) and i dont mind it it drifts like crazy in the snow but i know how to handle it so its all good there. EVENTUALLY i want to replace my 30 spline 14 bolt with a 35 spline and go arb in the rear too but that will be a while.
