Locker Questions
I have a 78 F-150 with the 9" in the back and the Dana 44 in the front. not sure about the gears. I am looking to put lockers in the front and back. My question is what are your guys opinions on the best lockers(assuming money is not a factor), the best bang for my buck, and what you have heard or experienced about ARB Air Lockers or OX lockers.
I use my truck off road the majority of the time, but i also tow my boat with it. Having said that, my boat is stored in a shed with about 2" of clearence on both sides and I was wondering if lockers would affect how well I would be able to back it in.
Right now I am thinking a full time locker in the back and an OX locker or equivalent in the front.

I don't have any experience with selectable, but I have a lockrite and a buddy of mine had a bronco with a detroit. It doesn't really push so much that parking your boat will matter. I would like an ox for the front, but can't afford that much.

I have the same axles, and I have a spool in the rear and a aussie locker in the front.
I like my set up, but I wouldn't suggest the spool.
If money wasn't an option, then I'd say go detroit in the rear, and I'd suggest a aussie locker in the front, but a ARB or Ox would be just as good, but cost and easy $500 more.
