3 Installing the Air Locker

3.11 Bench Testing the Air Locker

F To test the Air Locker; when 620kPa [90 PSI] shop air is applied to

the seal housing tube, the Air Locker should engage.

F Check all fittings and the seal housing for air leaks.

F Rotate the differential carrier by turning the pinion flange whilst

applying air pressure.

NOTE : An accurate way to test for air leaks is to fit a shut-off

valve to an air pressure gauge (ARB part # 0770005).

Once 620 KPA [90 PSI] is reached close the valve,

disconnect the air hose, and watch to see if there is any

drop in pressure. If so, this will indicate an air leak.

(Fig.15.)

Figure 15.

F If a leak is found to be present, spray a soap and water mixture

onto the bulkhead air fitting. Bubbles should appear at any leak

points.

NOTE : Do not spray this soapy mixture inside the differential.

F Check that leaky fittings have been adequately tightened.

F Disassemble, clean threads, and reapply thread sealant if leaking

persists.

If a leak is found at the seal housing, carefully remove the seal

housing assembly and examine the O-rings. Be very careful with the

O-rings and check for defects, damage, wear, or presence of foreign

material in the O-ring grooves. Replace if necessary.
