The yellow lock body is a very tight fit on the leather-clad XS transfer gear knob. It's not the end of the world but does mean that fitting requires slightly more effort than probably envisaged.

Yep, I had exactly the same issue with the leather clad transfer box knob and in my opinion at least, it was far too tight a fit to work easily/quickly as envisaged, so I switched over to a standard knob (with a suitable email to Si about the girth of my knob ). Once you get the 'knack' it's effortless to put on and take off. A very good bit of kit

I hope Si won't mind me saying this but he tells me he'd designed the unit with the smaller non leather clad knob in mind as that was what was fitted to his own XS truck . To move up to a slightly larger set of concentric tubing would have required a significant special order vs the stock tubing, so the costs would have been prohibitive no doubt. Jon - 110 td5 [sold].

If you would have to choose between this X-Defend Gear Lock and an Ard'Case (covering all three pedals), which one of those two gives better protection we think?
