Looking at a 99 R/T, what should I look for?

Holy sh**. Wow. The locker is like $400 and takes one hour to install. Those shops don't know what TF they are doing. $12-1500 is to do a whole new ring/gear/locker install. If you asked for a lunchbox locker, they don't know what the F that is.
Your 1994 V6 should be a 27 spline 8.25" (oval diff cover). If you have the 3.27 or 3.55 gears you can install the lunchbox locker at home. 3.92 I think clears, 4.10 requires using a special crosspin or grinding the inside tip of the ring gear. You pop out the C-clip, pull the axles out, remove the old cross-pin and all the spider gears, put the spacers in, then the splined teeth, re-install the C-clips, then put the center teeth in, then install the crosspin.
Shop labor will run you about $150-200, it's about 1.5 hours if you take your time.
