Re-Gear and Locker Installed

I have been holding onto the parts for the re-gear of our Toyota FJ Cruiser for some time. I purchased the gears from Nitro Gear and Axle which is the only company currently offering 4.56 gears for the 2010 FJ Cruiser.  I also purchased a front ARB locker. Installing a locker adds very little additional cost when the gears are being changed out. I had my local dealer perform the work on the FJ.

CO2 Locker Interface

I do not expect to need the locker for much of the travel that we do, but the few times it is needed it will be great to have.

Locker Switch

The locker is setup to use my CO2 as the air source.

I spent about 2 hours finishing the install of the locker controls and plumbing.

Cost:

  • Front Gears – $299.00
  • Rear Gears – $799.00
  • ARB Front Locker $1014.00
  • Stainless hose for locker – $65.00
  • Setup for CO2 connection – $69.00
  • Install labor – $1450.00
