I'd like the cheapest an good road manners I need them because when the truck gets in a bind like going up a bank sideways it hoops really bad an the tires that have no weight on them are spinning an not doin nothing cuz there pretty much off the ground

Same here, aussies f/r and my stock birfs haven't exploded yet.

However, just because the aussies were right for me, doesn't mean they are right for him.

Well, cheapest is going to be welded, spool or one of the auto lockers. I chose the aussies for their smooth operation and so far I've been happy with them. Spool would be rear only, 100% locked in the front with no ratchet mechanism is going to make steering miserable.

Just search around, there are discussions and reviews of all the auto lockers, which are the 'cheap' option.
