    Mine is welded right now because my tires were half wore any how. However, when I get new tired I am planning on running a tru-track limited slip by Detroit. I do like selectable and if my truck were more "expedition" style I would have an air locker

    I just don't wanna deal with the clicking, popping, and chirping right now.

    If I ever get to the point where I feel like I have to have more traction, I'll throw a spartan in there. Lol

    I wanna land somewhere between expedition and weekend offroader. But it is my DD so..

    I would I with a limited slip. Great for on road use, and you WILL need the extra traction, saves your clutch and wear while wheeling. Go ahead and take the kick, I promise it is worth it.

    What springs did you use for the rear of your truck in association with the 2" blocks? Do you like the front AAL? Also, are you planning on going higher than 33's? I'm also debating on which rear locker I want to go with. I've heard good things about the Spartan, and for the price it's hard to beat.

    Your truck looks great. I like the stance, I also want to do the round headlight conversion like yours.

    I am running a Stock toyota leaf pack with my 2" block. However, I am going to put an AAL in the pack soon. I love my front spring setup, i could not ask for better ride, and flex. I run a Lock-Right locker in my front axle, and I am impressed with it. I would not suggest running a spartan or lock-rite mechanical locker in the rear if you do a lot of driving. I would go ahead and get a limited slip of some type. I welded my rear, and regret it, and I plan to change it very soon. As for tires, I just sold my 33's and purchased a set of 35x12.50R15 Goodyear MTR's.

    Is it difficult steering with a front locker on trails? Get those 35's on, We want to see some pictures!

    I'm very impressed with it. If I could only have 1, it would be a front locker. It makes a huge different
