Default RE: locking diffs

An Eaton would be sweet becasue the operator has full manual control.
I have heard Zexel "Torsen" is popular on other forums. Fully automatic.
Be sure you know what you're getting yourself into, pinion depth, backlash, all that good stuff.

I think there was a discussion this past year about front diff lockers and such. I think the CV's would not like it. Also the front diff is a 7.25. ring gear. To small IMO.
