You don't always need the latest ARB air locker to go have fun, you just have to be willing to make compromises and then, willing to live with them. How about going and learning to install gears yoursef instead of paying someone else?
That was Grandpa Bob/Green Dragon on the Rubi. He apparently drives with a heavy throttle which is a big no-no with lockers and weak CV's. Big Swede is running deep gearing, 35"s, and lockers and he tries to avoid shock load to save his CV's. Of course he breaks one every now and then, but our CV's are weak. Todd Adam's also has ARB's and has little trouble with his breaking stuff. Smooth throttle is usually easier applied when you have lockers, which is good since it is key to not breaking stuff. To Lincoln lock the rear end you would have to dispose of the LSD and install an open carrier to weld the spider gears together. So if anyone got to that point, IMO, they may as well install a locker into that carrier...

Don't question me!
