Hmmmm, Has ARB released one that will work with the Titan yet?
I called ARB and they said they have one in the works as well, I got a call back by somebody who knew a bit more and he was unsure of an exact date, but he said that they "have had good results with the prototype models, and a production locker shouldn't take too much longer." One question that I forgot to ask ARB that somebody here may know: what is our rear axle's spline count? Is it a standard 30 spline "Dana 44" shaft, or something else?

I also notice the axle tubes don't neck-down where the bearing race and tube meet, I like that . Anyone know the axle bearing size? Tube wall thickness?
