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...

Wow,didn't know this! just another thing learned on this great forum,pity its bad news though . All the more reason to push for the Eaton or ARB then i guess....

I got ARB front lockers with compressor in the GQ that I bought, now I only need to figure out how it works

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!

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
