I am going through the same dilemma right now and money is an issue for me. I have decided to leave the front open for now and lock the rear with ARB and regear keeping the Dana 30 open and getting gussets and sleeves during the regear. I would love a pro-rock but that doubles the amount of my build. It has taken me a long time to save up for this and dont want to put off regear any longer. I plan on wheeling my dana 30 open, hoping it will last 4 years. Once the jeep is paid off, I will put my payments towards upgrading the front axle and getting 37s. Until then, its max 35s with open front.

Of course it depends of how you wheel but a rear locker allows you to go places easier with less abuse to your rig. Where today you may have to beat your rig to get it through a spot, with a locker you may be able to just crawl it.
