Nice write up, I'm still torn between an Aussie or selectable locker, I know eventually the lack of locker is gonna get me stuck - but one of the guys I wheel with (Who has a selectable locker) is trying to put me off the Aussie type locker, as he explains that there are times when he really doesn't want a locked rear. Plus when I wheeled my Xterra with an electronic locker, I kinda liked the ability to only engage it when I needed it.

But my 4Runner is a budget build. Truck and parts to get her where she is today were less than $2500. Adding a $600 locker kinda defeats the whole 'Budget' concept.
