Anyone have any ideas for rear locker options? I was thinking about a rear LSD.

Update on the Long Arms. They are still waiting on joints that are back ordered. :/

As far as the front bumper they are finishing up the Auto CAD and starting fabrication next week sometime! I'm super excited!

Yea, I think I'll get a TrueTrac. Its cheaper than an LSD. The LSD you have to get the carrier and have it setup again which I cant do. So I'll think about getting a TrueTrac. Its like the Aussie Locker Right?

What size tires are you running? I just find that with driving on pavement most of the time, an LSD makes more sense. But converting to a varilok axle is likely a lot more costly. I like QD myself. Then again, your long-term plans may call for bigger tires, which would make it useless anyhow.
True.... I have 255/75 R17. I'm thinking spider trax rachet locker
