Don't forget that a majority of locker installs will require you to setup the diff gears.
Since correct gear setup is far from easy, most have to spend the additional labor for that part of the install.

I'm pretty sure Elvota was referring to setting the differential gear preloads, clearances, and every other highly sensitive adjustment that has to be made so as not to destroy the differential in short order.

Just trying to give you a heads up on the added expenses that can be incurred when one purchases lockers.
