Arb Actuation Switch


Recommended Posts

Hi,

About to re-fit my ARB locker (after smashing the R&P on the old diff), it was origially a very rushed installation using components lying about the garage.

The air switch I used was from sort of machine tool, which does the job fine....

The problem is that this mechanical switch is neither pretty or easy to use (I had to use a tie wrap to hold down the lever).

So my question is whats the best type of actuator to use, do they come with switches?, whats the approx cost and where can I get them?

Thanks

Roger

Sure it does!

:D

Engaging is silent,when you un-lock you hear a nice loud "HISS!"

which makes me grin,sounds like a lorry

B)

All I need now is just a couple of red "gunner style" covers before playing Star Wars

:)

and a CO2 tank to go fully pneumatic,no cables,no compressor,just air...

;)

Indeed you're amongst my idols

:D

I would have liked a massive lever but didn't have a clue of where to find it.

Oh,BTW,do you have your tank re-charged with CO2 or just air?

Oh Shucks :D

Just compressed air

I think I'll run a similar system on Moglite, using little air rams to move the manual lockers. Easier than big cables.

FWIW I'm running the same switch as MogLite from Hyphose but with a toggle (push/pull) rather than lever. Tucked in by the hand brake just reach down and pull to actuate. Nice and simple.
