    :( Does anyone know where I can get a replacement airline from the the steel collar to the fitting at the top of the differential ? My air line was to close the the main body of the ARB and rubbed a hole in the airline and I applied air I found that I also had a small hole by the steel collar that the airline goes into. Even with a temp patch in the airline I can't get the locker to lock( bought used).

    I'm having a hard time trying to locate replacement parts to repair it properly. Any suggestions would be welcomed!!!!!!!!!

    Industrial supply house, we use alot of small high pressure air line at work for the robots on our molding machines. Is ARB a problem to get replacement parts from?

    Lets put it this way, After what I have spend on this !*@&@&#@^#%$ ARB Locker I could have had a detriot pu in both axles and have money left over.

    I went and looked at the sight, However was not able to tell if they sold parts for the ARB. It seems to me they only sell to distributers and not to the public. I can find just about everything else. I can't believe i'm the only one with a bad copper airline?

    Let me call a buddy tomorrow and see if he has access to any.
    I know I've seen rebuild kits for them somewhere.
    New lines and collar. We have done it a few times.

    Sixer, have you talked to Tumbleweed , another member of this forum from Boise?
    Don is a great guy, and if can be found in your local area he will know where to find it.
