trutrac vs lockrite in 4runner with ABS

Hi all,

I wanted some expert opinion on using a trutrac or lockrite for a 97 4runner (4x4) with ABS. I have heard that a lockrite will cause problems with ABS units and have been leaning towards a trutrac limited slip.
Please let me know what you have done with a 4runner with ABS and your locker choice, why and your experience so far.

Thanks

Are you talkin' for the front, rear or both?

I am talking about the rear. Also, my ABS in braking only, not traction aid.

thanks

Not an expert but if you plan on doing a lot of off roading then it is a no-brainer, the locker is superior. On pavement the locker can be a bit noisy and powering through sweeping curves can cause a bit of understeer. I'm not aware of any issues with lockers and ABS.
