Repairing an ARB diff locker so it never breaks again!

#arb #differential #landcruiser
this is a semi permanent fix that will work until it doesn't. I know it's not "perfect" by internet criticism standards.
Unfortunately I got a bit impatient, and the expected delivery times on the repair parts from part 1 are set to take a while, so I improvised. This isn't the perfect way to fix this, but I can't be without the use of my car for that long, so this is how I fixed it.
Inside my differential was a damaged copper tube to operate the ARB air locker. This was repaired by making a snug fitting tube and brazing it in place to bridge the damaged section I chopped out.
Next, I made a diff housing gasket from cereal box, and assisted its sealing with form-a-gasket (it's designed to be used in conjunction with gaskets. Other types are not).
Then it got thrown back together. That's about it. This shouldn't really have been a 2 part video, but I was tired at the end of the last one and didn't think of this repair method at the time.
