    How can you have that opinion? You rate TJM's Pro Locker (which has not been in production yet) which is the Mcnamara locker, He sold the manufacturing rights to TJM.
    I'm also sick to death of hearing how unpleasant Jeff is, Fair enough on the phone he can be a bit short. But in person he has been in my experience a very helpful man, who will in some instances go to extraordinary lengths to give you a solution.
    He is a very straight talking bloke who appreciates not being jacked around, but if you want a first class job he IS the man. If you want scones and cream with your afternoon tea as part of the customer service program. You might be better off elsewhere.

    [QUOTE=Psimpson7;882062]He is just incredibly hard work... god knows what would happen if you had a breakage and needed a part as a spare...

    Save yourself some serious grief and buy any of the other options... And I mean any of them....[/QUOTE]

    When's the last time you did that?............6 months ago I walked in and bought off the shelf an actuating mechanism for the manual difflock his father made.

    There simply are no strength issues with the jacmac locker.

    The pneumatic actuator that they use is far better than the actuator used in ARB's, which often leak because of the poor design.

    The vacuum actuator in maxi lockers, has some advantages, but suffer from a long delay (because vacuum can not develop high enough force) when you need to unlock the front in a hurry (often).
