I've daily driven rigs with lockers since 07, 94" wheelbase and 131" wheelbase, I agree, they're predictable either way, if you're on the gas they're going to lock, if they're locking and unlocking, something is wrong

Why not get an air locker or electronic locker? That way it's locked when you want and open when you want.

HA! Randomly started searching for Yukon and I found my name! I had the LockRite locker in the rear for almost a year before it broke on me, the little itty bitty pins that held the thing together broke on me, so I bought a set of 4.56's and a Yukon LSD. I made it 300 miles into the break-in period before the LSD grenaded on me. I haven't actually taken the cover off, but we're pretty sure that's what it was. If so, I'm ordering a Detroit LSD this week haha.
