Hi Max/Ozzy !

nice setup - its what we sell, where you from and who did you get your home from ?

Took a delta limited away for xmas and new years ... was great to get away and steep hills-decents/washouts/river crossings - could hardly tell you had a luxury house behind you, with the RV even more so !

enjoy....

Haydn

What I did this week is search for a phantom clunk from the drivers front. Still not any closer to finding it but is gives me the craps on the freeway. Maybe ball joint related.

You'll have to let us know what you think of it???

I had the Aussie Locker too but tossed it for ARB all round [found it to harsh and noisy]
The ORO Swaybar is plumbed off it's own solenoid using a manifold connected to the ARB compressor - there is always the possibility that I'll move to a front ARB locker, so I wanted to keep the standard ARB setup available for that.

I've got the compressor mounted on the firewall under the battery at the moment, but I like Hunty's idea of sitting it on the tailgate, so I might relocate it out of harm's way.

I've had a few issues with the end links on the ORO swaybar, however the addition of some spring washers seems to have fixed the problem. You will need to mount it upside down for a RHD installation in order to have enough clearance on the steering gear - I discovered this the hard way and had to remove and reinstall it.

I've got an anti-rock for the rear end, as I'm not currently running any rear sway bar - will see how much difference it makes.

The Aussie Locker is pretty quiet at the moment - I was given some advice that liberally greasing the pins and cams makes a big difference to the noise level, mine is currently barely audible - will see how long it stays that way as the oil washes some of the grease out of the center.
