It just really depends on what you want.

We got lots of different kinds of lockers, but probably not for the vehicle in your avatar.

Plenty of lockers for Tacos's search not only this forum but the web (froogle, yahoo, ect... you can find a great deal one place one day and a better the next. What kind of locker do you want? whats it for? how do you wheel/ dd / trail rig? Its the choice your gonna have to make for your self because everyone and everyones opinion is different. Selectability ARB or Elocker, Detroit for full time, posi for a little better traction ECT... choices choices choices. No best place to buy its finding the deal at the time

I am glad someone can read and understand English Hab!

I can get just about anything, yep anything, but I do not generally mess with the 7.5" IFS lockers and probably will not be the cheapest, but he is 2 hours away and a road trip this way for something else might save him some money. Just really depends on the total package he wants. All the 8" locker stuff we have readily available and are competitive.

First, read this
https://www.yotatech.com/forums/f31/locker-faq-43572/

To sum up, all lockers have to trade either on-road performance, off-road performance, or price/complexity - they can do two of those, but not all three. The only lockers without performance compromises are the selectables (ARB and Toyota e-locker)

PORC (Performace Offroad Center) is really good, sometimes Randy's Ring and Pinion has good prices, and for name-brand stuff like ARB 4WheelParts is good (I wouldn't necessarily get their "house branded" stuff though)

The best is randys ring and pinion and if you live in a dry climate go with a detroit or one of those t-locker pushbutton locker or arb is good as well

porc has good prices and all, but their shipping department is a bunch of monkeys passing around the beer.
