I've got the posi-lock fixed model sitting at home waiting to be installed. I don't want to have to think about cables or vacuum lines when I need the front axle engaged.
The trick is, if you think you might be going somewhere you are going to need it, engage BEFORE you actually need it.....

Check on ebay I got the whole kit for about $115 which was the cheapest I could find besides making your own. The directions aren't very well put together. I believe some guy has a video on youtube of how to install it, that or I think there are a few threads on another forum going over the install. Its not too complicated.
