Here is a link to a comparison. The Lokka is a much easier install, and much cheaper. Being able to unlock at will with the ARB is a real benefit. http://www.fourwheeler.com/how-to/trans ... -showdown/
We have 38 people interested right now. So price is 259 shipped, plus 30-40 customs fee.

Quote from Lokka; "Good to here you've got so many numbers. We will have to issue a new voucher code, and we'll make it $249. I'll let you know when it's processed. It will run for a month, to give guys time to get their orders in.
(We will just check them off the list of names you give us too, so keep us up to date.)"

Is there a scenario where having a lokka would be a disadvantage?

The article LesterB linked gives some pretty good info.

A front locker autolocker could make some off camber icy situations a little more dangerous and steering will be more difficult but by in large is much of an advantage than a disadvantage.

New message from Lokka,

Hi Dustin,

We need to know which model vehicle's they have, are you able to get this for us? We want to give our manufacturing guys the heads up so they can get stock levels up ready for the orders and we can apply the code to the right models. Just found out the code will be up for use for 7 days, we will let you know the dates once sorted.

Cheers
JD

Would anyone interested please message me your model and year of manufacture?

Group buy is nearing the start. More than 40 people confirmed and I am the only R51! Nobody else wants crazy off road capability?

Ah, yeah, unfortunate! ARB just wouldn't agree to 250...

It's the North American R230 that they still haven't. :(
