from what i hear they work great. i have also heard great reviews about true trac lockers. they are pretty much the same thing. i wouldnt go with a spool unless you only use the truck for offroading. they are a hassle on wet roads but i know a few people that just learned to drive with them and dont worry about it.

 

go aussie if you go that route, for a wheeling rig i say spool the rear and selectable or aussie in the front. tru trac, LSDs, are not a locker. and i dont notice my lincoln locker unless im doing a u turn.

 

My Lock-Rite lunchbox locker is great. You can probably do better than $250 though, and it looks like the quick-lock brand replaces your side gears too for some reason.

I got mine from PORC on pirate4x4 for $218, but most guys do better than that even.

 

Trail Gear just started selling Quik Lok I think...I don't imagine you'll find one cheaper than Trail Gear.

 

Well My truck is a daily driver, and I was wondering if there was any difference between a lunchbox locker and a spool? Could I install the spool myself, same goes with the lunchbox locker, but thanks for all the advice on where to find one.

 

Theres a huge difference between a lunchbox and a spool. One differentiates and one doesn't. Find the locker FAQ in the offroad tech section.

 

spools eat tires on the street, your tires will wear out in 15,00 miles with a spool.
