ARB RD196 Air Locker Locking Differential - Kit

The ARB RD196 Air Locker is a premium locking differential designed to provide maximum traction in the most challenging off-road conditions. As the world's leading traction aid, ARB Air Lockers deliver on-demand engagement that keeps you moving through mud, snow, sand, and rock.

Key Features:

• On-demand locking differential provides 100% traction to both wheels when engaged
• Pneumatic activation allows seamless engagement and disengagement from the cab
• Complete kit includes replacement differential housing, activation switch, solenoid valve, air line, and bulkhead fittings
• Engineered for extreme durability in harsh off-road environments
• Maintains open differential characteristics for normal on-road driving when disengaged
• Proven design trusted by serious off-roaders and expedition vehicles worldwide

Unlike limited-slip differentials that rely on clutch packs or friction, the ARB Air Locker provides true 100% lockup when you need it most. When activated, both wheels on the axle receive equal power regardless of traction conditions, allowing you to maintain forward momentum through obstacles that would stop conventional differentials. When disengaged, the differential operates as a standard open unit for smooth, quiet highway driving.

This complete kit includes everything needed for installation, making it a comprehensive upgrade for serious off-road enthusiasts looking to maximize their vehicle's capability.
