Default Anyone replaced their D44 e-locker with an ARB?

I'm growing weary of the delicate nature of the factory e-locker. The freagin idiot light, the fussy engagement, etc. So I'm considering doing an ARB with the requisite axle shafts from Northridge.

Has anyone here replaced their rear Dana 44 e-locker (or front one for that matter) with an ARB? Comments about your experience before and after? Happy with the results? Worth the investment, etc? Any and all feedback welcome.

Thanks in advance!

We have sold / Installed about 10 so far and they have been working great. You do of course have to buy new shafts.

David built mine too, and things work great. I wheeled the hell out of it at superlift and felt comfortable with the front axle. I never had the factory el locker. When I got david to build it I just got him to put in the 35 spline arb and rcv shafts. Very happy with it and workds flawlessly
