questions about what locker to install on 99 runner

Ok so me and my girlfriend have been building my truck for a couple years and now its time for some upgrades on her 99 runner. we want to install a selectable locker like an e-locker or and air locker in the rear. I was hoping for some input on what you guys/gals have or had and what problems you have encountered/ likes, dislikes.
We mostly wheel snow and sand, with the occasional mud and rocks.

Her runner has a 3'' revtek lift on 33s. flowmaster, cold air intake. 3.4 v6, 5speed.

Both are good lockers, I would also regear at this point since your gonna be charged labor to install a locker (unless you find an elocker with your ratio).

I am running an arb rear, and will be running an arb front in a few weaks. I love them, they engage quickly and I have only had one problem with them and that was a user install error.

The elocker is going to be cheaper if you find one used, and with the arb you need an air source for it.

I like an air locker because the whole electronics + water thing doesnt add up for me, that and once you have an onboard air system you can do much more, like pump up a flat, or install a train horn or something...
