Hi y'all excuse my ignorance but i found a couple of pipes on my diffs just now and as i know i have an air locker on the rear ,i wondered if the pipe on the front axle which is the same as the one on the rear was also an air locker or are they both diff breathers ?
Either way it is a result as i wanted to put diff breathers on for wading purposes!
Its a win win situation for me ,this anus is full of suprispes !

Just breathers, out of curiosity what made you think they were lockers? Do you have a compressor onboard?

If you have an air locker you will have a blue pipe going into the diff carrier not the axle, a compressor and a switch for each.
What locker did the previous owner say it had?

If there are no other pipes then there is no air locker. Can you post a pic of the diff carrier?
Could be a lockrite? Trying flogging the shit out of it round a roundabout and see if trys to kill you.

Yes mate and a tank ,its all plumbed in but ive never seen one before so didn't know what the pipe work was like.
There is another pipe on rear axle that's not brake pipes so that must be the locker pipe.
