    would that be the lockers switch ??

    if so i'd say it would be PITA as well
    i like them to be easy to see and feel myself
    saves putting your hand up all the time to turn them on and off

    I spent $6000 even at ARB for the front and rear lockers the duel purpose compressure Bull Bar Spotties and recovery gear snatch straps shackles EZ deflater puncher kit and a carry bag. The shocks have costed $1400 Shipped.The tyres costed $1500 had to replace the spare that was cactus the other bits and peices $1300

    Grand total of $10200 heck now come to think of it I bought the Disco for $14000 thats 80% of the value of the Disco

    the next step would be stronger shafts and CV 34's as I don't want to cut panels As for 4.11 I just found out that Model 128 lockers from ARB don't except 4.11 unless you machine the sun gears so ill try to see if I can reduce the hi and low gears in the transfer box but that's further down the line unless something goes pop which I'm really cautious about when I go off road I'm not heavy on the right foot as I needed to be with the Nissan

    Went out to Lithgow the other week with a few blokes from the outer limit forum I found that with a bit of clearance there wasn't anything to stop the Disco it performed as well if not better as a GQ with a 2 inch lift and 34 however he wasn't worried as I as he already had every panel damaged

    what was excellent on the day was that there where whole bunch of people with brand new rovers RR sports to D3 what my disco did it stuff as on lookers where dazed with amazement obviously new people to the off road world and they will probably never do it again
