Use more of your Toyota's front-wheel traction
When the front wheels meet different levels of grip, the RD151 gives the matching 34-spline Toyota IFS differential selectable locking. It is an upgrade for difficult off-road sections where an open differential allows one wheel to spin, while normal differential action remains available when you disengage it.
SKU: XADLRD151
An open differential allows the wheels to turn at different speeds, which is useful for corners. On uneven ground, however, one wheel can spin while the other has grip available. Engaging the Air Locker locks the differential so both wheels turn at the same speed. That helps you make more use of the grip available on the axle.
RD151 is the 8-inch IFS, 34-spline front locker for the matching Land Cruiser J200, 2007-2021 Tundra and applicable Lexus LX570 installations. The 2016-onwards USA-market LX570 with eight-speed automatic and 3.307:1 front ratio is excluded. Different bearing and housing versions of the Toyota 8-inch IFS differential use different locker codes.
Disengaged, the Air Locker behaves as an open differential. You can enjoy normal road driving, then select locking for a low-traction off-road section. Engage it before the wheels are spinning, use it where the tyres can slip, and disengage it when turning or a firmer surface calls for normal differential action.
The ARB CKMA12 single onboard compressor can operate one or two Air Lockers, so it is a straightforward choice for a front-and-rear locker setup. It also supports tyre inflation with the appropriate hose kit. The compressor is purchased separately.
If you regularly air down for off-road driving, the ARB CKMTA12 twin onboard compressor is a worthwhile upgrade. Its higher airflow gets your tyres inflated faster, which is especially useful with larger tyres or when you are inflating several in a row. To connect Air Lockers to the twin, add the separate ARB 171503 compressor manifold kit. The ARB pump-up kit supplies the tyre-inflation hose and accessories.
A differential specialist sets bearing preload, ring-and-pinion backlash, air sealing and line routing during installation. Accurate setup matters for quiet running, reliable engagement and the life of the axle. Bearings, seals and installation parts must match this differential.
The correct carrier bearings are identified in the RD151 parts sheet. Replacement CV retaining clips and axle-shaft oil seals may also be needed when the shafts are refitted.

Both wheels on that axle turn at the same speed, helping you use the grip available when one wheel would otherwise spin. It is especially useful for low-traction off-road sections.
It operates as an open differential, allowing the wheels to turn at different speeds for normal cornering.
The compressor is sold separately. The ARB CKMA12 single onboard compressor can operate one or two Air Lockers.
RD151 is the 8-inch IFS, 34-spline front locker for the matching Land Cruiser J200, 2007-2021 Tundra and applicable Lexus LX570 installations. The 2016-onwards USA-market LX570 with eight-speed automatic and 3.307:1 front ratio is excluded. Different bearing and housing versions of the Toyota 8-inch IFS differential use different locker codes.
Installation includes differential setup, bearing selection, backlash adjustment and air sealing. We recommend a differential specialist so the locker and the existing gearset are set up together.
The CKMA12 single can operate a front and rear Air Locker. Choose the CKMTA12 twin if you also want higher airflow for regular tyre inflation. The twin needs the separate 171503 manifold for Air Locker connections; tyre inflation uses the appropriate hose kit.
