Time to spend and wrench. Are the Rubicon T case and rear hot swappable, plug and play with existing 23 JT MT

Thank you for adding to this; but I didn’t say that the Detroit was an LSD, I was trying to draw the comparison that it doesn’t require the driver to do anything which is similar to the LSD as it is “automatic”.

As for adding an air locker and its ease versus a 12V switched device, I won’t argue that either. What I was saying is that if I were adding one and was already planning on using an air compressor (refer back to the use case I was talking about) then I would probably go with an air locker rather than change out an entire axle just to get an e-locker.

Not sure why you want to be argumentative, but I’m not your huckleberry.

I was mostly clarifying for the op that a Detroit sucks on the street, especially in bad weather. The opposite of an LSD. Auto lockers add a lot of strain to the drivetrain as they are always "on" not only in places where you don't need them but also in situations where they are detrimental or even dangerous.

In summary, great smart people responded.

1) world famous transfer case, why change it if you aint crawling. Saves me big money
2) Wheel the LSD for many trips before you decide you can't live with lout a selectable in the rear.
3) Concentrate on a selectable in the front.

Great job folks thank you very much. Put the money and wrenching in other parts.... Skids, bumpers, Suspension and wheels, tires.

Liking some of them internal beadlock stuff from Method..

Thanks again all.
