Need front locker before Moab. What and where?

Any traction aiding device. I'm starting to prep for a solid axle swap and just want a locker/Limited slip in the front for Moab, until the SAS is done.
 






PV,
Aside from what was already mentioned (Powertrax Loc-Rite & No-Spin units, Detroit Locker and ARB), I know there's an electronic locker avalable as well. However, the price is more than a Detroit but less than an ARB. I think you're pretty safe using a No-Spin (that's what I'm going to install) or Loc-Rite until you swap out your suspension. Of course, I'm not trying to make this year's Moab run, either.
Good Luck, Dave.
 






I was just down talking to my kid, and they don't have any in stock (including anything used). Your best bet is someone like National Driveline or 4 Wheel Supply. (Some stores grant a discount for club members - do a search)

Sorry I can't do more... but at least I have mine! :thumbsup:
 






Thanks everyone for your replies and imput. I called a guy (all he does is work on rear and front ends). He said he would install a True trac but doesn't want to cause he feels they are crap. And he stands behind his work so I take his advice very seriously. He said $285 for the locker and around $250 for installation. Thats to much money, especially when I'm planning on doing the SAS. This a decent thread and if you guys could post your part #'s it would be worth keeping. Espcially with GI John from the jeep board trying to figure out what is swappable. Thanks!
