Sorry, I meant the "manual" locking part. Being able to pull the **** out for rear lock in 4x2 and 4x4 modes. I thought everything except the Raptor will only engage the rear locker when 4x4 is selected.

^^^ That is true. Only the E-locker in the Raptor will engage in 2wd. I've seen on another forum where people swap the Raptor parts to their F150s to make the E-locker work in 2wd. The E-locker disengages at 25 mph in high range in 2wd or 4hi so it's still useless to me.I'm still planning on putting a Truetrac in my FX4.

E-Diff. or Manual Limited Slip?

Given a choice between the Off-Road Pkg. with the E-locking differential or the regular 4x4 with the optional limited slip, which would you choose? I know the Off-Road Pkg. has other options ie. skid plates, but I could have them added later if I chose the limited slip.

LSD without hesitation. Get the skid plates later, and only if you really need them.

In the thread below, an individual figures out how to make it work above 25mph I believe. It's later in the thread and he lists the part/part numbers to make it work if I remember correctly.

E-Locker Override Mod? - Ford F150 Forum - Community of Ford Truck Fans

EDIT: I just re-read some of the later posts. Looks like it's working for some and not for others.

Ya from what I read I didn't think it was working above 25mph.Even if it did work a locked rear would be scary on slippery snowy roads.
I just need to find out if swapping in a L/S carrier would mess up the traction control or anything else.
