ARB is on board
« on: January 25, 2012, 12:40:03 PM »
Hi everyone, Sam here from ARB Head Office in Kilsyth.

I've just signed us up on the forum and wanted to introduce myself. I'll be popping in from time to time to see if I can help out with any questions about our products, let you know about new gear we're bringing out and just generally get involved.

Any general sales and after-sales queries should still be directed to your local dealer but I'll be happy to answer any general product related questions and help out where I can.

Cheers, Sam.

P.S - Long time Swaggers will also know me as Hookedon4wding. I'll be keeping that account running for personal stuff and refraining from commenting on ARB related threads.

Hi Sam,
As I am planning on buying a new Prado soon and decorating it with a number of ARB products, please feel free to promote your wares. And also feel free to encourage your dealers to offer tremendous package deals to myswag members.  ;D

Good to see that ARB is willing to be involved in the community.
There are a lot of people out there (on this site and others) who have had debates about all the gear.
Listening to them will be handy.

Hi Sam

Welcome to the forum.

Can we get some lockers for the Kia Sorento designed please?  Current owners are retro fitting ARB lockers designed for other vehicles (see hyperlink below). 

Can't be good for your brand if something goes wrong with these frankenstein lockers, and if it already works I imagine it wouldn't take much additional work to offer a Sorento variant.  It's obviously not a massive market but with 170,000 views on the 2nd video below, there's obviously enough interest to justify consideration.

The first SORENTO in the world with a rear 100% DiffLock!!! Small | Large


Thanks mate.

I've tried that with ARB before thru mates that work there, the HO wasnt interested in it.
Shame, had some great group buys I've run before, 38 sets of 240 Lightforces when they first came out for 100-200 off best prices offered elsewhere or similar from memory.
