Trac lok LSD?

I'm about to order a 4.56 gear package (4x4) for my truck. I have 3.55 w/ open diff right now. I obviously want a lsd, but I just spent $ on an engine swap (among other things) and gears are expensive, so an Auburn or Detroit is a little out of budget.
If I can find a deal on a low mileage trac-lok, should I go for it? Or am I better off waiting until I can afford a better one? Thanks

The Dana Trac-Loc is barely effective when new. They are practically useless after about 50,000 miles because it is a clutch-type (constantly wearing) limited-slip. Your money would be better spent on a gear-type limited slip such as a Detroit Trutrac.
I have a Jeep Grand Cherokee with the Dana Trac-Loc and a Dodge Ram & Jeep Wrangler with (factory) gear-type limited slips (in addition to the factory lockers). Let me tell you...night and day difference. I can go pretty far off road with the Ram & Wrangler in 2WD before I need to engage 4WD.
Do it once and do it right.
