Ready to lock it....or am I??
So far, I have 2K saved up for gears (4.88's) and lockers. I have been impatiently waiting and I'm not sure how much longer I can wait.
What I reeeeeally want are selectable lockers. That would take me a lot longer to save up for and once again....I'm getting very impatient.
As of now, I can get my 4.88's and Trutrac's on my rear and call it good or I can continue to save up for however long that may take.
I need some opinions thrown at me.
What does everyone think of Trutrac's?
Should I only lock my rears?
Should I wait and get selectable's?
Any advice/opinions will be helpful.

It's my DD. I take it out on occassion. I would take it out more, but I can't very well drive the wife's car if I bust something on it. I am slowly upgrading everything I can so that I can take it out more often. In the future I plan on buying a 4runner and once that happens, I'll be hitting the trails as often as I can and better prepaired for what may or may not happen.
My buddy has Detroit's, but he says that if he were to ever do it over again, he would save up for selectable. He's used to it now, but the hopping and skipping around corners is a bit annoying.
I do a lot of in-town driving and use my wife's Honda whenever we go out of town.
Aren't Truetrac's supposed to built like brick-house?
I'm still undecided.

A limited slip would be little more "polite" on the road, but kind much less useful off road. Read the Aussie Locker review (link in my sig. line) because i wrote it to give people an idea of what driving an auto locker was like chiefly around town. I have found it easy to adapt my driving to make my locker near invisible on road.
