Are there any tricks or secrets when installing ARB Air Lockers and ring and pinions sets?
Ry's about to take the Jeep apart and start installing the goods.
I want to get my hands dirty and learn the how to work on our Rig as well!
So Ry' and I are going to take our time so he can teach me as much as possible!

Thanks all
Jen

Somewhere between being sane and insane!
Installing a ARB is not a newbe progect.Lots to go wrong with a ARB install.Though they include very good instructions,the 8.25 is far easier then the D30A will be.The D30A requires alot of special tools,a case spreader is one and is not cheap.I would possibly look at getting them installed by a pro that has done ARB's before.


Just my 2 cents as a tech that can(and has done) many R&P installs and I'd rather have a root canal done without being numbed 1st then do R&P installs.

IMO it is not that hard just need to take your time
and make sure that you shim the locker properly or it can and will spin in the case
ask me how I know
a "lolly pop" cost about $75
