Driving off road can be an exhilarating way to escape the pressures of urban life while experiencing the beauty and diversity of the natural world. On the other hand, driving off road can also lead to frustrations far more stressful than those you hoped to avoid in the first place. In most cases, a single factor makes the difference... traction!
Many people believe that a 4WD and traction go hand in hand... you can't have one without the other. The truth is most 4WDs send power to the wheels with the least amount of traction when difficult terrain is encountered. This occurs because your vehicle's standard (or open) differential is designed to allow each wheel to turn independently, thus eliminating binding during cornering. Unfortunately, an open differential means that when one or more of your vehicle's wheels loses traction - when you're caught on slippery rocks for instance - a standard differential directs all power to those spinning wheels, and momentum is lost.
EASY TO USE: Dash-mounted push-button operation allows the driver to engage or disengage the Air Locker at will; locking takes place in 1/10th of a second.
RELIABLE: Uses high-grade aircraft alloy components; up to twice as strong as stock differential components.
VERSATILE: Ideal for both street and trail use; especially suited for use in front differentials.
AIR POWERED: On-board air compressor provides 80-105 p.s.i. for inflating tires, rafts, etc; fast-recovery compressor. When using optional RDPUK inflation kit.
