Upgrading differentials

What has been a popular differential upgrade for the F150's? I have had great luck in my Mustang with the Detriot Trutrac. Completely quiet and puts the power to the ground nicely. I am looking to upgrade both the front and rear axles.

I'm going TruTrac on my '08 Screw. I think these are the best of both worlds. I have never had one up front, but I emailed Eaton and they said that it is hardly noticeable during normal driving.

It's not like a do a ton of off roading but the last few years we have had some major major snow falls. In the last 5 years we have had 30" in 24 hours, 22" 15" and a couple of 10" to 12" falls. I'm sure the stock rear locker would be fine but I'd like something up front and as long as I am tearing into it I might as well do both the front and rear.
