Like the question, but a little bit more specifically, does OX locker have their systems available yet for the JK -- with a d44 and 3.73 gears?

Well, from what I've heard, cable lockers are stronger and more reliable then air lockers because air lockers are more prone to their lines/hoses ripping or getting dirt clogged in them. So, it's usually safer to go with cable lockers or locking hubs. And OX has a great reputation amongst rock crawlers plus a lifetime warranty.

I really want a set up for my rear axle already, although I know it will be fairly pricey.

I thought I saw an OX press release offereing JK D30 support some time ago. I have not seen anything for the D44 yet. Also, are cable lockers more reliable than air lockers? You will get a lot of answers on that but my answer is one is not more reliable than the other. FYI - There are now kits that can air actuate Ox Lockers.
