Yer ok. I'm thinking ox lockers though. Arb have leaking issues and need a compressor and the only problem with if is the cable sticking which if guess is an easier trail fix. Also I did hear freezing mentioned but thats bit much of a problem here. $880 each from quadratec and shipping is basically free for me.

same with me, everyone talks about it leakin and i know no ones that have leaked. I know of some one with a dodgy actuator and i have got a hole in the air line in the engine bay but thats it.
Buy something like this and keep in the truck and all good

Oxs are cheaper and supposedly very strong. Havent finished doing research so its not set in stone but ive read the pros and cons about all of them and there all about equal and id rather a sticking cable than a air leak or a cable ripped from the magnet. Air lockers are very expensive though. Are they any other good options for selectable lockers on a budget?
Thanks.
