I was going to use these, but went with the ARB stuff instead. Its a good thing I did, because the front one blows back some gear oil every once in a while. It would suck to have that stuff in the interior.

Do you mean that they blow oil back through the exhaust port on the switch?

[Dukes69]

yes

When your ARB seals start to leak a bit, oil gets pushed up the air line when the differential warms up. It acts like the vent tube is blocked (but it isn't I checked). The ABS tray (where I have the soleniods mounted) in my Jeep is soaked in gear oil. Not something you would want inside your Jeep. Hopefully I will have time in the next couple weeks to pull the carrier.

One of mine does this also.

the ARB manual says a little blowback is normal, FWIW.

Air switch

I was going with that setup and run my locker off my Co2 but was talked out of it. The ARB pump is so simple, comes with a complete wiring harness, is so easy to hook up, and then it just has to do one thing. For the $200 one time 'fee' it was worth it.

Thats exactly what I did . . . very easy.

Don't you have a York? Don't the switches and solenoids come with the lockers...? Mine did. I'm confused.

I picked up a front and rear axle (used) with lockers already installed, so I had to get all the rest of the stuff.

FWIW, your locker looks complete Rick.

Aaah, IC... It's all clear now.

Thanks Brian.
