Any locker suggestions for the TRD Sport rear differentials?

Correct. I have a TrueTrac in my 2nd gen and it behaves nicely and is silent. If there is an option for OP's "weirdo" config of the 8.75" diff, it should be a consideration.

This site is showing that your only option is an ARB Air Locker.

You could also do what my truck has (ignore the 2nd gen Off-Road/Sport/differential sizing differences, and think about the concept):
Replace the 8.75" diff with an 8" diff from another truck and then your options open up to the option of a Detroit Locker or Eaton TrueTrac.

Hahaha

if he does that, I’ll call dibs on the 8.75 axle assembly

Eaton has one coming in April, thought I would never see if for the 8.75" (they say 8.9" others say 8.8")

I just looked into traction options for the 8.75 non elocker diff and was disappointed to find that ARB is still the only off the shelf option out there. Couldn’t even find a spool.
I guess one could always weld the side and spider gears but I’d much prefer a Detroit

Good to see more options coming but it’s an elocker, not an auto locker, LSD or spool

I run a detriot trutrac in the rear of my 07 Sport it has done awesome. Until I went to 37s and it takes a bit more to engage.
