England 2006 Discovery 3 TDV6 SE Manual Arctic FrostDiscovery 3
Active Rear Diff Lock

As an option for £495, has anyone ordered or got a vehicle with this feature, and is there a noticeable difference?

If you are to off road, yes. Slimer had the rear diff added and on one of the Fun Days he proved the point.

Yea, if you get one and come on one of our off-road days Ray will use you as a demo vehicle Shocked I'm still waiting to see the video/photos of that which I seem to remember someone had?

Not having driven one without the rear locker off road I can't really comment on the difference but it seems to work really well.

Has anyone added the factory rear locker to the Disco 3 as a dealer installed option so to say? I need to add it.

Nope, Factory Fit Only.

You'll have to wait until someone else brings out a compatible one

Unless ARB set up the Airlocker, which I forgot to ask about, must do that.

One of the Forum members on another Forum I use in Oz will be doing a story on ARB accessories in the pipeline for the D3. He will be checking out the new winchbar and will discuss with ARB other products they are considering or already have in development. I'll let you know what I find out.

In mid Oct 05 we will have a 4*4 exhibition and I believe ARB will be there so I'll get pics of what ever they have on display. Hopefully ARB display the D3 accessorised Laughing

That will be interesting as I deal direct with GKN who are the main importers of ARB and I knew it was happening, but not when.
