i know and have seen 2 people who had Front and Rear ARB lockers installed into their diffs.

drive in, take out thirds, install locker/gears into third, re-install third, wire compressor, done.

I still do not think that this can be done and will go on record as saying so. If I am wrong, I will start a thread purely for the purpose of public humiliation.

That sounds like a good plan, Cebby.

Yeah, congratulations on 2 trucks. Mine is too.

The point is the stock 4.88's.

Marlin, All-Pro, ORS and maybe more sell thirds, but I don't think that they take cores. If you have buyers for your thirds and can get better than $250, then it would work out well.
We can add Inchworm Gear to that also and I don't think he takes cores either. The part I am really worried about is the front ADD diff. After the issues that came up in the ORS thread, I am not sure if I would go through them.

RT, I originally thought that you could not.

Check Off-Topic for the answer.
