Lockers?

RE: Lockers?
Open diff will only send power to the wheel with the least traction. A limited slip will transfer some power to the wheel with traction if the other one starts to lose traction. A locker will send power to both wheels equally when engaged.
What do you plan to use the vehicle for? If it's almost completely on-road, use a limited slip. If it's going to see moderate to slightly heavy off-road use, use a Lock-Right or Detroit EZ locker. If it's gonna see heavy off-roading or you need maximum traction in all conditions, use a Detroit Locker. If you have unlimited funds and want the best of everything, use a selectable locker such as an ARB Air Locker, Detroit Electric, or Ox Locker.
They get more expensive and more heavy duty in the order I listed them (generally).
