    Locker owner opinions?

    Not sure I get what your meaning. Yes, a ARB locker will mean a new ring carrier. That is what an ARB is. When installing any selectable locker, a hole will need to be drilled to allow the power supply to reach the new carrier. the hole would be drilled in the third member, not the housing. The...

    Locker owner opinions?

    Seth (adventuredriven) has been speaking with ARB about building a select-able air locker. They need a 50 unit minimum to consider it. Ill let Seth share what he knows. IMO, selectable is the only way to go.

    Geared hub in progress.

    The CTIS can be set to run higher PSI. I got the info somewhere. I personally love my CTIS, cant imagine why anyone wouldn't want it. its such a great system to have if you are actually working the truck. Suppose not much need for parade duty.

    FMTV High Speed Gears

    If one tire is one the ground, it will not move. Therefore no power can be transferred thru that side of the axle. Jacking up one tire will render the results needed.

    FMTV High Speed Gears

    Keith also has an A1 with a C7 cat. Perhaps his economy is due to that. my 3116 sees a bit over 6mpg with factory gears.

    Strange Bed on LMTV

    Anybody seen a box like the single axle LMTV has in this video? Sides look fixed, and taillights are mounted in box. Have a similar plan. https://youtu.be/V5o2mSYtZE0

    Spicer 3053a seals n gaskets

    So was your input bearing loose then?

    Spicer 3053a seals n gaskets

    wrong bearing or not, its still the same size. so if it wasnt bad yet, then it wouldnt be your culprit. It will be interesting to see what is the cause of this, since it isnt limited to just one truck.

    Spicer 3053a seals n gaskets
