Adding locker(s) to a Sport! Should I keep the factory LSD and add only a front locker, or full lockers all the way around?

Has anyone ever seen the Manu locker installed in a Gladiator? I'd like to see some photographs of installation locations if anyone has them.

You'd have to dig but many years ago bleepinjeep posted videos of ox locker install and a separate video changing from manual to electrically actuated.

@Zero_Accel , Keep the rear LSD for now, replace the front with a locker of your choice/budget, and use the money that was going toward a rear locker for new aftermarket ball joints with clips. The OEM ball joints are infamous for popping out under high load, aka when you need a locker. If you have a few extra dollars replace those junk aluminum knuckles with some steel Reid Knuckles.

Now your front end is basically sorted and you can do better axle shafts after you break your first one.
