Retro Fit e-locker advice
So as I've been wheeling, I've been feeling the pain of having no locking differentials. Now that I have some more cash I'm looking to get a set, however I've been reading the write up on retrofitting one of the factory e-locker's and it looks like a pretty good deal. I would just like a little advice from anyone that has done this on whether is was cost effective, (less than arb air lockers) or if they would rather have gotten some air lockers. Basically if it was your wrig, what would you chose and why.
Also I'm looking to get a small lift for now, nothing to crazy, maybe like 2 inches max for now. Anyone have advice on lift kits? I love sonoran steels stuff, it looks amazing, but I don't need anything that extreme for now. I'm also not interested in spacers. I've been looking at some OME coils on WAB fab and was wondering if anyone has run these or if there are any other minor coil lifts that anyone is using.
Thank you for your advice

I cant answer your locker questions, but about the lift....
I hear nothing but good about the OME stuff. I have a ToyTec lift (like a million other guys) with OME shocks, and I think the ride is very nice. You can find OME kits for front and rear that lift 2" for under 650 online.

Or you Toytec has a number of options too...
