They don't make a selectable locker (air or electric) for the little 10 bolt (most) of our trucks come with, do they? All I've been able to find is for the regular 8.5" rear. I would love a selectable locker in mine. They're expensive, but for a daily driver, it's the best of both worlds.

The G80 is good for 90% of off-roading, no doubt, but it's that last 10% that's the most fun.
