    Im very keen to hear more about the air locker vs e-locker scenario i think it would be quite interesting to hear of peoples pros and cons eg. Air locker tried tested been around for ages, e-locker no airlines or extra acc such as compressor to run or play up and easier to repair broken wire in bush than busted airline.

    Well When I had air lockers I had nothing but trouble with it not disengaging when I turned it off!! Know biggie for the rear but when I'm going up a big incline or over a heap of rocks in a creek crossing and I needed my steering back and it doesn't let go (with out stopping and rolling back) I found this very annoying!!.. Also always had oil leaking back through the lines.. Again ARB told me this is all normal and didn't want to fix it.. Also you don't need to wait for the air to pressure up.. With the Elocker as soon as you hit the switch your locked and as soon as you turn it off its off!!!

    i beleave the elocker is more expensive(purchase price)on its own but once u get the airlocker then also the compressor it then works out more.not sure about install cost but its not just the locker its the compressor also for the air locker so id be thinking it would cost more then just a switch

    id go the elocker over air, i can fix electrical but id be screwd if i riped a air line somehow i doubt if ductape/ zipties can fix that

    We had this happen to us at LCMP When my misses drove over a stick and it came up and ripped the rear air line off.. We ended up using fencing wire that we twisted around the line till it held LOL But again this is another issue that you will not get from a Elocker.. The price of the Elocker fitted worked out only a little cheaper than the Air but I think your better off with the E :-) People always say "but you get a air compressor witch you can pump up a tyres with" hahahahaha Yer if you don't mined waiting for EVER for it to pump up LOL
