Locker help
Im thinking about purchasing my first locker and the one that has me sold as far as function is the eaton elocker. Any body have any better suggestions. Also I don't know if I should have one for the front or the rear, since this is my daily driver/ weekend off roader.
I have had several vehicles with lockers. Currently have an Jeep TJ Wrangler locked front and rear.
Up front you want a selectable locker (air, electric, or mechanical controlled). In the back it can be automatic or selectable. If you put an automatic in the front, when off-road it can sometimes remain locked when turning tighly and make the vehicle not want to turn. If driving in snow, I would go selectable in the back as well - a automatic locker can get unpredictable in snow.
I would lock in the rear first, and then if desired next lock the front.
