Accessory Outfitters in Beaverton installed ARB front and rear lockers in my 97 LC. 503-642-2600
I've never had an issue with the installation.

Is that your Cruiser on their website? Damn its clean!
Yes it is. From 10 feet it looks like a million bucks. No big dents but it's pinstriped pretty well.
Central 4wd maybe. Delta park. Lots of Toys, lots of jeeps.

Accessory Outfitters just quoted my $2k in labor to install lockers f/r and rebuild my knuckles while doing the front axle. That seem pretty high to me. Thoughts?
I bet it's higher than 4wheel parts. No way I'd let 4wheel parts touch my car. You'll get what you pay for. It's a lot of work to tear it all apart, wire it up and put it back together. Experience is worth something as well. They have a lot of it.....Toyota specific.
Land cruiser specialties did a bunch of work for the PO of my rig...I advise against their work. No need to go into depth, it's just my advice.
Edit: apparently the PO wasn't completely honest with the work done by Land cruiser Specialties. After speaking with the owner of LCS and a little research on his end I have to retract this statement. You can disregard this recommendation.

Good to know.
You may find a better deal. But thats a BIG job. I think they're in the right ball park.
I have examined a V8 swap LC NW did into a FJ 60. The engine was mounted and installed crooked. That's my experience with them.

I'm guessing most do not have a cantilevered adjustable differential holder, Bearing Press, or Dial Indicator with Magnetic Stand, and that's just what I see in pictures.
Meshing the gears is also not a job for a
either.

I just meet with Patrick over at Accessory Outfitters and left feeling very confident that they would do a solid job for the price. Thanks for the recommendation!
Has anyone installed their own ARB lockers?
