    Yes, a locker on the front is a bit risky and one has to be careful when using but what the hey...
    I'm also considering beefing up the spindles with gussets. Any ideas or comments regarding this procedure?

    It's less risky with a selectable locker but yes, either way you need to be careful with the skinny pedal. Problem is with the auto locker it will engage when it decides it's best, which might not always be when you intended it.

    Another concern would be a 3 point turn

    I have had front and rear ARB lockers in my sport for a few years now and they have been trouble free. Always engage, no leaks, and awesome offroad.

    I have a single compressor already but my issue is no funds for arb I’d much rather go that route. They do perform great
