ARB 5 ton locker

[Gunny65]

I am pretty new to the site. I would be interested in 2 if this is still possible. Seems to have gone quiet though.

I have a line on 2 rear air locking 5T axles for $1000 each. You would need to swap in your gear ratio. It is the entire vehicle, and I want the front. PM if you have the $ and want in on it.

It won't be made by ARB but there is now a selectable locker in the works. It will be a drop in setup other than drilling a hole or 2 in the dropout. actuation is not decided yet. options we are working on as of now are air or electric or possibly a cable option too.

What happened here? Are selectable air lockers going to be produced or not? If they are please let me know where to send my money. I need two.

Russ Gearhart is working on them but it's not priority till some one sends him some cash to build a set.

Do you know how much he needs to build a set? I have visited his website, but there's no sign of 5 ton selectable lockers. By the way thank you for your quick response. I am kind of suprised by how fast the enthusiasm for this was lost.

As price goes up, enthusiasm goes down.

I'm working on a custom bobbed m800 5 ton, and would like to have my hands on a set of air lockers before I rebuild the axles. I'm new to the site but have been following for a few years. Any info would be greatly appreciated.

I don't know price yet. things are still in the designing stages now with a few hurdles to overcome and not make them crazy priced. Your other options are find a set of axles from an m1500 firetruck. those airlocker axles will bolt right into the truck and will also make the truck faster since they have 5.81 gearsets in them. you can put the 6.44 gearsets in them too if needed.

Going faster is not an issue since I will be using a T-1138 transfer case with the Spicer 6453 five speed with overdrive, and 16.00R20 tires. (Theoretical top speed of 80+) Plus those axles are hard to find, and go for a premium if you do find them.

lol yeah I bought 5 sets of them so far at scrap price but ya gotta be in the right place at the right time.

I have two rear 5T air locker axles from an M1500 for $2000 total (both). When are you sending the $? Love the name. -74

I might be interested if there was a front axle too. Bet you can't guess what's going into my 5-ton

Lucky bugger, try and leave some for the rest of us

Sorry, that last post was supposed to be here

Just post your account number and we will take care of the rest.



If you take 50 sales x the top end of their estimated cost $1500, it is a mear $75k.

I am looking at a M927 right now and the lockers are right up the ally if I get it. I would be buying 3. If anyone out there has added an extra axle making the M927 into an 8x8 I would be interested in 4. I am new to this forum and dont know if the order has been done already and someone already has the order made and has them in stock. Let me know.
