    Pat, I have an Ashcroft ATB in the front of my (obviously non-tc) County. It's awesome. On road it isn't there. Off road you can feel it working, feel the tyres pulling forward when there used to be just spinning. Best bit, is they add traction and don't reduce steering!
    I might put one in my series

    I have looked at Ashcrofts lockers and whilst they appear to be a very good product, not having an Aussie distributor {that I can find} and not being mechanically minded I am reticent to go down that line.
    At least ARB are here in Oz, and just about every 4wd shop can work on them and has spares if something goes belly up.

    The reason Ashcroft can offer them at reasonable prices is they DON'T have an Australian distributor to charge silly markups. Dave/Ian - please don't stop allowing us to buy direct!

    Anyone who can install an ARB can install an Ashcroft locker.

    Hi,
    I understand this theory but it is very often not the case in reality, see post 45 :

    http://www.aulro.com/afvb/discovery-...lockers-5.html

    we can deliver parts worldwide in 2-3 days, the spares are way cheaper than the ARB ones but it's academic anyway as we haven't sold any yet as we haven't had any failures !!!

    they are working well as far as I am aware, we have had no negative feedback, they will work even better with TC as it will effectivly brake the spinning wheel for you to preload the diff and transfer drive,

    sorry but we don't have a HD CW/P for the 110 rear

    Pretty easy to install, drive to a diff specialist, give him the keys, come back a few hours later with cash and you've done it
    I had it installed by someone who knows what they are doing but it doesn't look particularly hard-I just hadn't seen a diff off a vehicle before that day.

    Landed was under $600 but the dollar is even better now than May last year
