I need some info. What is the best lockers for the best price for front and rear. I cant afford arbs, and with the front do they make a full spool since i have locking hubs i could use one on my everyday driver. Any input will be used. Oh its for my 96 sidekick.

Lockright in the rear, and the Lockright carrier from Trail Tough/Low Range Off-Road in the front.  :)

I would recommend against putting a spool in the front.

Ditto on that, but try to put a steel diff in the front. That's what I did and when it warms up, a spool goes in the rear. Brent at Trail Tough will set you up!

yep, no spool in front its to hard on it when turning you will blow a shaft.  Put on in the rear though, I like them better than lockers.. 2 years running on my rig now.

But,
How does a spool perform  in the back on a daily driver ? How does it effect turning ? Is it hard on the rear end ?
What is a good locker and the best economical place to get one ?
Thanks,
Raz

The spool is a little harder on the rear end, you mainly notice it when driving in parking lots.  Depending on your tires you will hear chirping as you drive around corners.

Just about everyone sells the Lock Right around the seam price, 235 from Low Range, http://www.lowrangeoffroad.com/kickaxles.htm

If your going to run a lockright in the front without switching to a steel front diff you have to get new carrier, also at Low Range.  Trail Tough sells them as well.
