See if you can find a selectable locker for the front. Last I heard, Teraflex.com still had a couple dana 60 Ox-Lockers on the shelf that they were getting rid of cheap. 4.10 and lower ratio though...... (thick cut 4.56?? maybe....)

Well, the rims are on order, surplus humvee rims (need to be re-centered, plus my brother has a set of 36/??/16.5'' superswampers with 90% tread that I can have). Balljoints, bearings and seals are on there way.

All I need now is to settle on which kinda locker I want and what gear ratio. pics supplied when I get around to installing these puppies.

Can you get a selectable locker in the back? Personally I hate my LSD because I've been stuck too many times when two wheels were spinning and the other two were laughing at me.

I thought about an air locker, front and rear. something selectable, and also something that I can street and not have my rear end slip out from behind me in this beautiful florida rainy season.

If you got thar I'd be extremely jealous, I'm already jealous lol. If you're from Florida too you know how quickly this mud can eat your truck if you don't have all four wheels spinning.
