Air for an ARB locker? Should I run an ARB compressor or a Powertank? Can I run it off a Powertank?

I thought 4WP has a ttora discount (10%). They at least do a package deal for doing gears and lockers at the same time. If not try TRDparts4u.com or contact Shannon Brookshire (Tacozilla) as I think he has an ARB order hookup for TTORA.

(Compare prices with these three). Also you probably won;t want to install your own ARB unless you are familiar with doing gears. It is very hard to get the backlash on gears right when installing an ARB.

Lastly have you already re-geared? In not the time to do it is when installing an ARB, because if you want to re-gear down the line you have to pay someone to basically do the install twice.

Hope that helps! :D

MMM Locker on that purty green runner. Whoo Hoo!

You can run it off a Powertank, but you have to be VERY careful to have the pressure regulated right, or you'll blow out the seals (and that's bad)

Powertank makes a kit to do this.
