    Hey guys not sure if you have seen the air lockers I have. They are a Chinese made locker complete with compressor and tyre inflation kit.

    I wasn't to sure on these to start with so I bought one over to have a look and test it out. When it arrived I was very impressed with the cnc machined unit. I installed it into my car to make sure they could handle Aussie conditions. Now I have had it in the car for around 5 months and used it plenty of times and it has never let me down. The tyre inflation kit is abit of a joke but the actual compressor is quite good.

    I can do the kits for $900 delivered so imo they are worth a look.

    Check my website for pics and i look forward to hearing your opinions and answering any questions.

      After testing out the rear Air Locker last weekend at Ourimbah, I'm very happy with it and it makes a BIG difference, but I would like to go one step further and get a front Air Locker now. I'm glad that I went with the Air Locker rather than the E Locker and having the compressor on board is handy too!

      How come every time I get a modification done to my Prado, the wish list gets longer- by a factor of at least 2 as well!!
      Cheers, Brad

                Well I've bit the bullet and booked the car into ARB our 2012 GTG sponsors to depart with some hard earned cash......well now I have to explain to wife why Mum is taking my car to ARB. Hmmm do I tell her the truth or lie and ask for forgivness later? She'll have settled down hopefully by the time I get back from work.
                Yep.....I have a Prado just like you

                          I've just ordered front and rear e-lockers, so will be getting them installed in a few weeks. Can't wait.

                              I know just the spot to give it a whirl Adam, you don't need a locker to get through this particular creek, but if you take the "locker line" the photos are much better, read huge front wheel lift

                                Are you saying Auto lockers aren't available for manual transmission Prados?

                                Auto lockers can be used in manual transmission 4WD's, a automatic does not make an autolocker any more suitable than a manual either.
