This question may have been asked thousand times. Please forgive me to ask the 1001th time. As a newbie, I really appreciate the advice from the pros.
Basically, yy 2004 LX470 has 200K miles, and I like to go to remote wildness, solo most of times. However, I don't do rock crawling.
The recent ARB promotion can get the RD152+CKSA12 for about $900. With $100 for new carrier bearings + carrier gasket, and $250 to have it professionally installed (by ZUK), the total is $1250 installed. I will have to remove and reinstall the rear 3rd by myself although.
I read the ATRAC on 04 LX470 works pretty well but never experienced it before. So is it worth to invest $1250 on a rear ARB locker for my need of offroading, on an ATRAC equipped LX470? Will the ARB locker introduce any new issue?
