To an extent it will void the warranty. On the front differential your warranty will be avoided because you have tampered with it. The rest of the powertrain? Well if Ford can somehow prove that that Locker cost the problem than sure the warranty is void but if it has not cause that problem than it does not. Make sense?In two weeks I'll be placing an order for a Ranger Tremor. In time, I'd like to add the ARB front locker to it. Would this cause warranty issues? It's not something I plan on doing right away but during the first 2 years or so.
Thanks
The Ranger Tremor already has Terrain Management that uses the ABS system to keep the wheels from slipping and sending power to the wheel with traction. Adding a front locker will add weight and provide very limited benefit.I'll be placing an order for a Ranger Tremor. In time, I'd like to add the ARB front locker to it.
A front Locker will still help quite a bit. Some people think that the terrain management is a full-on replacement for a locker.

This was going to be my comment. With the TMS you really won't get much use out of the front locker, but to each their own.The Ranger Tremor already has Terrain Management that uses the ABS system to keep the wheels from slipping and sending power to the wheel with traction.

So here is a Jeep with giant tires and a front locker -vs- the Tremor with Terrain Management.A front Locker will still help quite a bit. Some people think that the terrain management is a full-on replacement for a locker. It is not.
I don't think that the Tacoma in the video has any type of terrain management. I don't think it is offered when a manual transmission is optioned.I think the terrain management system in the Ranger is better than Tacoma.
I 100% agree with you. Most people including people on this form that do go off-road don't even do that heavy of stuff that it would be one hundred percent needed. Even I myself wouldn't need a front locker but I have considered the idea of it after I get the rear Locker installedI don't think there is any doubt that when it comes down to it a locker would out work TM. The bigger question is if you would actually find yourself in a situation where that difference would be needed.
HI Folks,I 100% agree with you. Most people including people on this form that do go off-road don't even do that heavy of stuff that it would be one hundred percent needed. Even I myself wouldn't need a front locker but I have considered the idea of it after I get the rear Locker installed
