    This thread makes me want to get my runner done sooner than later. Ill prolly drop it off at a shop and just let them do it. Was thinking about calling Scott at addicted offroad to see how much and how long it would take.

    I'm putting a Detroit in the rear of mine. A buddy of mine at the FD runs Aussie lockers and has no problems though.

    I've heard great things about the lockrite, of course ARB but too pricy for me & just more shit to add with tanks/lines/compressor, unless you alreaady have that shit for airing down

    Just curious what's your though on a Detroit. I have no personal experience. I know a few people who have them. I'm still open to use something different. The arb is too pricy for me.

    Detroits are great.. They were pretty much the industry standard for years

    Good info. I may go that route they are a bit cheaper price wise I believe. Like I said my buddy runs lock rites in his jeep and no issues.

    Good to know. The problem here in co with toyotas is most people around me have the e locker so I have nothing to gauge off of with my runner.

    It's not real subjective, your either locked or your not, but the bigger issue is longevity,quality & user friendly I figure

    Scott is a great guy to take your truck too. He is one of the better ones I've seen. Love his work.
