I have a 96 xlt 4.0. I wheel occasionally with a jeep grand cherokee and a discovery. I want more traction to be able to hang with these guys more often. also we get a ton of snow here and i was considering a rear selectable locker. then i thought maybe a limited slip would be enough for the little i do wheel. also is there such a thing as a limited slip for the front diff? basically what do you guys think is best for me on a tight budget. i currently have an open 3.55 rear end thanks.

since you are starting from scratch don't waste the money for a l/s go right for the locker

I agree with the others, go locker.

You can install a Detroit trutrack in the front differential. It is a limited slip helical gear actuated carrier. It is a very different driving experience (in snow) than an open front differential. Selectible locker works in the front to.
