An ARB or an OX locker works as an open diff untill you engage the locker the ARB uses air to lock so you will have the added expenses of an air compressor but will have the benefit of on board air. The OX locker uses a cable to lock it in so it is somewhat cheaper but you have to have a good...

Did you tell them they don't have to remove the whole motor to replace the hose wow 300$ that's crazy. I always smell antifreeze after driving my 03 but it never is low and I don't see any leaks I bought the kit after seeing this post I always like having stuff on hand if I ever need it
