BUY A LOCKER AND SAVE 400.00 AN ARB IS NICE FOR SURE JUST EXSPENSIVE.

an arb would be nice, but theyre so expensive. lock rite's are cheap enough, and work fine

Now that I have an ARB, I have to agree that you should just spend the money and get one.

However, everyone else in the club with Sammy's are running lockrights front and rear and are perfectly happy with them.  :)

i have lock-rites in the front and rear of my samurai.  i drive it on the street almost every day and off road.  i just take it easy and avoid making u-turns or anything like that.  im happy with them.

Iif you want too be locked in the front, just unlock the hub's for street driving. In the winter you can just run around with one hub locked for normal 4 wheel drive. Might add some stress to the front axle but you are locked up in the front.

I wondered if u could do that and get away with it.  Is it not too much stress?
