Get a lock-rite. In my opinion they are the best bang for your buck in terms of offroad traction and decent on road manners, and not incredibly pricey. If you have manual hubs and don't plan on using your 4WD on the road in the snow, you can put anything in the front like a spool.

The best locker is an ARB, and they are only $1000.

Aussie is supposed to be better than a Lock Right and they now have a V6 locker. I have the Aussie 4cyl and its good.

lincoln locker. Been wheeling hard for over 3 years w/38's on the yota and they haven't broke yet. make sure you get the 220v variety.

+1 to that. The cheapest, most efficient locker is the lincoln locker. Lol.

Hmm, locker is $300, tires are $500-1000. No differentiation= excessive tire wear. Fine for a trail rig, but not if you drive on streets.

I like my lockright. Big wide mud tires hurt the on road drivability more than the locker..

Ive yet to drive an aussie in a truck like mine so...

holy hell, when did aussie release the V6 locker???
im goin for the lockright in the front and an aussie in the ass... (no homo)

my lincoln lockers dodn't cost over $5 and a fluid change.... True, it does kill the tires fast on a daily driver . Small sacrifice for max traction IMOP.
