Had it plumbed in the shop first. Then did it myself numerous times. Leaks came from several places. First from the fittings (used the arb sealent then teflon tape) then from the tank around the center retaining bolt. Fixed mumerous times. As I said, I believe the thermal cycling broke down the seals as the aluminium expanded much quicker then the steel fittings and retaining bolts. Florida summers = 95 degrees plus. The lockers themselves where great and worked with out fail. I would put the compressor as the weak link. The salt air where I live didnt do the aluminium hardware any good either and I believe led to my first seized compressor. I have since found that keeping it as simple as possible is the best. The e locker cuts out numerous moving parts. On a hard core wheeler I might even go with the cable actuated OX locker. I wish I had your sealant info when I still owned my TJ.
