If you were going to buy One locker at a time which axel would you do first? Front or Rear

 

Front if you don't have a rubi. Reason being is the rear is a Limited slip which will hold its own, where as the front is open on the non rubi.

I run an Aussie locker in my front 30 and rear 44 is factory. Haven't needed to lock up the rear yet and doubt I will. If you have an auto, there is a dance you can do when your stuck to better engage the LSD. It consist of throttle/brake back and forth and you will begin to move.

 

Cool. That's what I need to know. Thanks!

Beer!

 

I may be wrong, but I do not think all rear have LSD from the factory. I am sure you will get a lot of opinions on this of which mine is only one. You should find our it you have a LSD in the rear, I checked your profile and think you have a sport so it should have a D30 in the front. You might be better off going with a locker in the rear. It should be able to take more abuse without breaking. It seems that a lot of people who add lockers to the D30 end up adding a lot more parts (axles, sleeves, etc.) to make it hold up. I also have an unlimited sport and have been thinking this through for a while. I need funds, but will probably start with the rear.

 

In theory front will provide most traction with the weight of the engine above it

 

Put it in the rear. *giggity*

 

Not all jeep have limited slip there for you want to lock up the rear. limited slip in an x or Sahara is an extra you have to look at the invoice.

 

1 more vote for rear, because I usually only need to lock on steep ascents, but this is Colorado.

 

Thanks!! I do have a D30 in front and D44 in rear. 3:73 gears. I'm leaning toward the Rear. Then a Tera44 for the front next.

 

Definetly REAR usually when you need a locker you are climbing & that loads up the rear end .
