i wouldn't waste my time with the auto hubs..

ok, next question.  I have a 1991 suzuki sidekick with a 8v standard tranny.  With the locker in the rear and 31" LTB's will i have any power/toqure to turn those tires with the stock gearing?  Should i get TT tcase gears first or get a locker for the front? because i notice that when trying to start from a stop when turning you really have to hit the happy pettle to stop if from stallingwith the locked rear, and im thinking with the locker in the front this would make it even worse?

any opinions?

A locker will not make it any harder to drive power wise. the reason you have to give it gas to keep from stalling it the 31" tires and stock gearing. TT tcase gears before locker is my opinion. Unless you only do mud or dunes then front locker!

mostly run trails, off camber stuff and washouts.  some mud.

if im ordering the tcase gears from TT i will probably save up a little longer and order the TrailTough tcase gears and the front locker to save on shipping and duties.

Gears before locker.  Even if you have the front locker first, your gearing is so off that you'll end up burning you clutch out and breaking axles from going to fast. 

The lockers and ring & pinion gears (5.62's) were put in at the same time and that was okay.  But still, when it came to tougher climbs, the ole clutch got one hell of a workout.  Now that I have installed the 4.24 t-case gears, what a difference.  I loved it when I was climbing up hills and rock outcrops that the jeeps were having one hell of a time climbing...and I noo problem even with my A/C on ;D  It just crawls under minimal power.  So I would recommend the gears.  Good luck!
