ARB Air Locker — Toyota 8" IFS Front (30-Spline, 50mm Bearing)
Independent front suspension makes for a comfortable Land Cruiser, but an open front diff still loses traction the moment a wheel unloads on an off-camber climb. The ARB Air Locker for the Toyota 8-inch IFS front differential adds a driver-selectable, air-operated lock so both front wheels drive together on demand, then releases for normal steering and turning on the road.
This carrier is built for the 30-spline, 50mm-bearing 8-inch IFS front diff fitted to the 100-Series Toyota Land Cruiser and Lexus LX470 (1998–2008). Front locking transforms low-traction climbs and side-slopes where the front axle would otherwise stall.
- Selectable, air-operated 100% front differential lock
- Sized for the 30-spline Toyota 8" IFS diff with 50mm bearing
- Instant engagement from an ARB air source
- Bolt-in replacement for the factory front carrier
Trade-off: needs a compressed-air supply and professional installation; front lockers should be engaged only when needed for tight, low-speed work.
