Ok so im definitely buying a locker/lsd with my new found tailgate money. I had my eyes on the powertrax lock right for a while because it's cheap and doesn't require taking the ring and pinion out.
BUT you can't use a notched cross pin on it and anything over 3.73 REQUIRES the notched pin so the "fix" is to grind the edge of a couple teeth on the ring gear. This has always made me iffy but I'm cheap so I was willing to do it. Now that I have 600 extra bucks I'm now considering other options.
I have 4.10s now but if I have to remove the ring and pinion and redo all that I'm going to 4.56 gears. I do not go off reading in my truck except for hard pack sand trails with the occasional sugar sand pit. It's a daily driver but I'm looking to make it more reliable in the snow. (Already have awesome snow tires and bed weight).
What lsd/locker fits the bill here? Gotta be tame on the street but help out a little with the one wheel peels in the snow. And I've now got about 1,100 to spend between gears and the locker.
