Default Aussie Locker

Anyone think aAutomatic LockingDifferential from "Aussie Locker" be a bad investment at $229 for a Dodge Dakota??

I am up in Washington where the Weather in the winter can be a factor of for or stuck in the steep snow banks. I ever so often go out to the back roads with 35 degrees of climb and go off roading. It would be fun, But I just called Aussie and they dont have any. They have me on a waiting list for one they are fabricating. [:@] I found some others for $500 though. They may make a 3.9 L a little more fun off road!

I have an Aussie in the front of my Jeep Cherokee. It is awesome. But, since they don't make them for you, try a Lock Right. It is nearly identical. Lunch box lockers like those are awesome because they are easy to install, unlock themselves when you go around corners and are relatively indestructable. The downside is they can be noisy. But with a truck (as opposed to an SUV like I had) it is probably less noticable when you have one in the rear axle.
