Default Zip locker

Anyone know of any real world failures. I've seen the video put out by ARB. That's not what I'm looking for.

From my understanding the zip locker is the older ARB design with some improvements

There has been tons of debate on the Zip locker vs the ARB. Fact is nothing is indestructible...everything has a breaking point.

BTW they are offering a $75.00 rebate on the Zip locker until September 16

Is this the video?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dyzyAVPTM8c&feature=youtube_gdata_player I'd be interested to hear if anyone has experienced these catastrophic failures, that's a pretty good price diff

I am fixin to install Yukon 4.88's and Zip lockers. I have heard alot of good things about them and not many bad. Guess it all depends on your driving style. From what I have right now, I know I won't regret buying Yukons.
