ARB diff lock airline

[Mr Harry]

Looks like the front ARB diff lock airline has chaffed through

Once I've located the spare length to replace it, is there anything to be aware of when replacing it?

The solenoid end is a push fit if I remember, so just pull out the old and push in the new.

At the diff end I think its held in place by compression fitting, so again loosen, pull out the old, push in the new and tighten.

Sounds simple, but have I got it right, or anything I have missed??

Thats about it just unscrew the end on the diff and give it a tug, make sure the copper pipe doesn't disappear in the diff otherwise its diff out job.....It shouldnt disappear too easily though.

Rather than replace the entire air line, cut out dmaged bit and replace with female to female couplers,

saves hours and £s. I carry then as spares for "Off Road" repairs if needed, and have a few of these

joiners in the 2 of the lines now

Also watch the olive thats really a once only usage - a PITFA Size, IMHO deliberate on the part of ARB to make the

olives a tad obsure and non standard stock, as such when I found some at a pneumatic engineers I bought 50

for about the price of 3 from ARB !

Nige where did you get the 5mm push fit from? Ive been looking all over the place but people keep saying "we only sell 4,6,8,10,12mm"

They're easy to find on Google, ebay, etc.
