Perfect right!!!? Not sure of my options and costs. Really trying to keep my costs down - this will be a weekend cruiser - not a high-end build Any other thoughts/recommendations would be GREATLY appreciated!
I would avoid a locker (of any type) unless you're using it strictly for drag racing. I went with a Torsen-type unit (POWERTRAX® Grip Pro) in my 9" axle and am very happy with it.
