    I want one but worried about possible damage. I found this video and got me worried about it. So I am still tossing up a Auto Locker (Lock Right).

    Personally I would not pay for an ARB Locker.

    But as per the comparo in 4wd action - nothing (usually) bar comp trucks even come close to exerting over 6000 lbs of pressure on the locker ...

    That said ... makes you stop and think ...
