A 4x4 and traction go hand-in-hand; however, standard (open) differentials allow each wheel to turn independently to eliminate binding in turns. Off-road, this becomes a problem as engine power takes the path of least resistance—to the wheel with little or no traction. Limited slip differentials offer some improvement, but too often the slipping is not "limited" enough to maintain forward progress. Automatic locking differentials also have disadvantages; noisy when disengaging, they can also upset on-highway driving characteristics. Created to provide traction on demand, without sacrificing highway driving performance, ARB Air Locker differentials employ a 12 V ARB air compressor (sold separately) to pneumatically operate a solid and durable locking mechanism inside the differential. When activated, the Air Locker prevents the differential gears from rotating and the axle shafts from turning independently of each other. With both wheels tied directly to the rotation of the ring gear, the vehicle maintains maximum possible traction at all times. When unlocked, it operates just like a conventional open differential. ARB Air Lockers are available in over 100 configurations for a wide range of vehicles and can be installed in both front and rear axles. Installation should be performed by a qualified differential technician, although no special tools or skills are required, apart from those necessary for fitting a standard differential. ARB also offers three compressor models suitable for Air Locker operation, two of which can be used to inflate tires and operate other equipment. Additional features of ARB Air Lockers include: * Vastly improved traction means less reliance on momentum, reducing the likelihood of vehicle damage * Easy, convenient operation without leaving the comfort and safety of the driver's seat * Ultra durable and extremely strong; only the highest quality materials used in construction * Patented gear technology and 2-piece design ensures optimal locking strength * Forged gears provide superior strength and durability * Incredibly simple, yet effective, design employs minimal moving parts for maximum reliability * Thoroughly tested and proven * Most sold as kits with differential, activation switch, solenoid valve, air line, and bulkhead fittings * Front and rear Air Lockers available for most makes and models * For 4WD and 2WD applications * Easy maintenance; no special additives required * Also offered in ARB Traction Packs that include two Air Lockers, a compressor, and accessories for tire inflation

ARB roof racks are valuable and versatile accessories. ARB manufactures both steel and aluminum models in a variety of lengths and widths to suit a wide range of vehicle types. Both ARB styles are researched, designed, and tested to ensure functionality in the most demanding of conditions. With a strong, aerodynamic design, ARB steel roof racks are constructed for maximum strength and perfectly suited to the structural design and load carrying requirements of off-roading. They feature MIG welded joints to ensure optimum strength, and are available with evenly spaced crossbar floor that can support loads of up to 330 lbs., or with a fully welded steel mesh floor. Prefer something lighter? A full 40 percent lighter, ARB aluminum roof racks offer the ideal solution for carrying excess or bulky items, with all of the durability, strength, and load rating of their steel models. They are perfectly suited to owners who may wish to remove their rack between trips. They come with Amplimesh alloy mesh floors, and a combination of TIG and CMT welding processes are used to ensure optimum rack strength. All ARB roof racks feature: * Rails are mandrel-formed, ensuring consistency and an even wall thickness across all sections * Air deflector plate significantly reduces wind noise * Pressed steel feet and legs are height and width adjustable, allowing multi-vehicle installations * Stainless steel fitting hardware and a unique, super-strong clamping system that's easy to install and remove * Full-length, zinc annealed steel support channel with plastic protection strip to distribute load along the gutter and prevent vehicle damage * Precision-cut drainage channel, specifically-designed to reduce buildup of dirt and accumulation of moisture * Top rail sits well above rack floor to ensure a secure load and is constructed from tough, 25mm tube while the bottom rail utilizes 35mm tubing

ARB Classic Deluxe front bumpers offer maximum protection and off-road functionality for your Jeep. Manufactured from high-grade steel, these bumpers are machine-formed and reinforced with internal gusseting for maximum strength. All joints are fully welded to add rigidity; the front bumper assemblies are then pre-treated with a zinc shield for superior corrosion resistance—and finished with a textured black powdercoat for durability and aesthetic appeal. Order the model designed to fit your application. Features, specs and parts may include: * Full-width front bumper with heavy-duty steel build * Accommodates most standard recovery winches via built-in 10,000 lb. rated winch plate * Bottom mounted D-ring mounts maximize recovery approach angles * Integrated light mount tabs and fog light housings allow you to reuse OE fog lights via two light-mounting ports located on the bumper's front. Additionally, light mounting tabs on the top of the hoop allow installation of LED lights (not included) in various configurations * Hefty urethane buffers * Installs onto your Jeep using pre-existing locations with modifications * Retains use of factory airbag

Fully assembled and bench-tested ARB on-board high performance air compressors install into your vehicle and include a full, snap-together, fuse-protected wiring loom with solenoid plug-in contacts, mounting hardware with reinforcing bracket, and an OEM-quality compressor isolating switch. With the addition of an ARB-171302 pump-up kit (sold separately), they can be used to activate ARB Air Lockers, and perform other functions such as inflating camping gear. So what makes these compressors special? They're small enough to fit into even the tightest space and quiet enough to mount in the cab. They have enough output to air up four 35 in. to 37 in. tires in a single duty cycle and typically air up a 35 in. tire in just over two minutes. And, they work. ARB has tested these units in ovens, freezers, underwater, and in the silty dust of the Simpson Desert and they continue to perform. Features of ARB on-board high performance air compressors include: * Constructed of lightweight, high-strength, engineering-grade materials, including military and aerospace-grade components * Relocatable, splash-resistant air filter with washable high-flow sintered bronze filter cartridge for cleaner, cooler air supply * Fully sealed components for moisture and dust protection * Over-pressure safety valve-equipped * Pressure switch-controlled air manifold system specially designed for ARB Air Lockers * Hard-anodized cylinder bore and PTFE-impregnated carbon fiber piston seal for reduced friction and maximum life * Anti-vibration, sound-deadening, anodized mount dissipates motor heat and allows compressor to be repositioned 180 degrees * Ball bearing-equipped motor (no bushings) with unique, linear brush, pre-load system for long life, low heat, and quiet operation * Compressor piston equipped with a German-made, high shock-rated, cylindrical roller bearing * Motor is internally thermal-protected against extreme temperature damage * Comprehensive-photo illustrated installation guide * Range of accessories available
