ARB Air Locker — Dana 35 (27-Spline, 3.54 & Up)
Regear a Dana 35 for bigger tires and it still runs an open diff that quits the moment a wheel lifts. The ARB Air Locker turns it into a driver-selectable, fully locked axle on demand: switch it on for 100% traction over rocks and ruts, switch it off for smooth, open-diff street manners.
This carrier fits 27-spline Dana 35 axles running 3.54 and numerically higher gears — the common regeared setup on the Ford Explorer, Ford Ranger, Mazda Navajo and many Jeep Cherokee, Grand Cherokee and Wrangler models. On-demand engagement gives you a locked axle only when the terrain calls for it.
- Selectable, air-operated 100% differential lock
- Forged internals for the 27-spline Dana 35 axle
- Matched to 3.54 & numerically higher ratios
- Instant engagement from an ARB air source
Trade-off: needs a compressed-air supply and professional installation. Confirm your spline count and gear ratio before ordering.
