That price was from ARB at coopers plains and they needed the car for 3 days unless they had to do diff lapping and that would go out to a week

Don't get ARB to do it...

Buy the lockers from the US and take them to your local diff shop or find someone who can fit them on here...

He's not far from you either. At Bethania from memory.

But he is working OS ATM, so you may have to wait a few weeks for him to get back.

Thats crap. If they said 'lapping' they are talking rubbish. No standard diff needs that, in fact, no after market diff should either.

Go to another ARB store. I've only ever had over inflated prices from these guys.

Don't go to arb at all. I'm pretty sure any price you get told is to put just the locker in that doesn't include new bearing or any thing.
Joeblow or oozuke will confirm this
Oozuk will put in the new bearings and seal for the price I quoted above If u buy the bearings.
But like said u might have to wait till he comes back from OS
Or you can give it a go yourself, just have to get the pinion preload right
