I bought a used rear axle with an arb locker already installed a few months ago and have been looking into getting the stuff together to install everything sometime in the next couple of months. I am just going to swap the third member from the old axle into mine so I dont need to worry about actuallly installing the locker. However I am having a hard time finding a list of things that came with the locker. obviously I need a solenoid, a switch, and an air line. I have found the solenoid and switch on amazon, and the arb air line is available from 4x4parts. Is there anything else in the kit that I need. And should I buy all arb stuff, or are there cheaper alternatives that I can trust not to break on me.

I have an air supply mounted in the back hatch area, a 6 port manifold, and a regulator (140psi I think) for connecting to an air tank, but the only thing hooked up right now is the compressor. I will eventually put an air tank in where the spare tire used to be, but for the time being I plan on just hooking the compressor to the locker.

I could be wrong. But with switching over the third member would you still have to drill and tap a hole for the airline entering the diff? Or does this go through that part? Besides that it is pretty simple. Air solenoid valve and switch. Yup and the air line that matches the solenoid valve hook up size and arb size. I don't know about brands or quality sorry. Besides that the optimum presser I believe is 80-100 psi and most people go with 80psi.

The hole is in the third so I dont have to worry about doing anything for the locker install other than the swap.

And thanks for the info. I have been looking at stuff for a couple of days and cant really seem to find a list of what it came with. Looking at just the pics it looks like there is some kind of bracket, 2 or 3 brass connectors/adapters, and a few other things. Finding a good blown up picture to look at has proven as difficult as finding a list.
