Espen,

As I noted in one of my emails I sent a 3.07 final drive down to a company that specializes in building air lockers and they advised
there was not enough room to install one.

To change the fluid in the final drive you have to remove the final drive cover. If you have not done so yet I HIGHLY recommend you
do so. When I took the cover off the final drive in The Blue Streak I found a rubbery substance all over the inside and at the
bottom it was 3/4" thick. I reckon the fluid had NEVER been changed!

While you have the cover off you'll see just how little space there is inside.

Regards,
Rob M.

And the below is why I was hoping to find something simular to the ARB Air locker that have a switch on the dash, just turn it on
when needed and have an regular open diff at all other times.
