My experience = gear center wayway too expensive. Randys ring and pinion - muchmuch cheaper.

Last truetrac I bought new was from randys, and delivered to my door from wa state, 1/2 the price of gearcenter.

I have just called the Gear Center. Do you have any contact info for Randy's Ring and Pinion?

Ox is back.

I run a eaton e locker in the front of my jeep and its been great. No issues other than I snagged the wires once. 10min with a wire stripper and butt connectors and I was good for the rest of the trip(rewired it better out of the way later).

Lots of people I wheel with have ARBs. Eventually they all have failures from bad compressors, cracked, torn, leaky lines and fittings, or if you have it long enough the o-rings in the case start to leak. I'm not talking in the first year or two but like 5+ years down the road. These guys wheel 12 months a year in every type of terrain. They love their ARBs and to them its just standard maintenance. I have only had my elock for 3 years and didn't get out much last year so I cann't say how it compares to an ARB for longevity.
