Russ, I can tell you lots of bad things (and even show you some bad photos) about the standard Patrol locker. A number of forums members have also had issues with them...Russ Kellermann wrote:As far as Nissan Factory lockers are concerned, i've never heard one bad thing about them

Re: Front Difflock
haha, flick the switch, compressor should fire up and keep air lines full untill you flick them off again. Well,....in theory, thats if yoyr o-rings, airlines etc are not dried out and leaking.
Keep us posted!

Re: Front Difflock
In theory
Ad this point I hope everything works, must be honest did not test the diflock or anything when I bought it, so definately need to go for an outing to start testing all the bits and pieces.
Then still need to figure out when to use the lockers, on the Isuzu the diflock and locked front hubs was enough to get me where I wanted to go..... :idea: which might only mean I never went anywhere woth going WWW
