I am wanting to put an air locker in my rig, front for now and rear over the summer. I was wondering what is the general oppinion on the brand that gives you the best bang for your buck.

for air lockers, you cant beat a ARB, but then again, I am biased because I sell them.

If you're set on air, AFAIK the only 2 options are ARB and Tera.
But there's other selectable locker options.
OX makes a cable-actuated locker
Detroit and Eaton both make electric lockers

Detroit Electrac is no longer in production.

thanks for all the info. I didnt even think of electric, I am checkin those out now. How much harder, or easier, are the electric ones to install than the air ones?

Never done either. but in theory, the air would be the hardest, with the airline routing thorughout the differential case.

You could get the factory Toyota cable or electric lockers...
