This is borderline chit chat question. Was talking to a buddy yesterday about my rear locker options with my SF 77.
My understanding is that that rear axle is : 9.5 12 bolt, semi floating, 50mm bearing, am I correct?
I guess options would be the following:
a) ARB Air Locker on the SF - Looking at the ARB chart rd 153
b) Auto Locker on the SF - less interesting to me; but if I ever feel I NEED to have a rear locker on the truck this would have to be the least troublesome way (ease of install + cost)
c) Swap to a FF in the rear - What axle is ideal to source for this? Will an 80 rear axle will work?
I'm not in any hurry to do this, and may not even do it at all. The truck is lovely to drive on and off road. I do not think the SF is a negative for my applications. I think the swap just to go from SF to FULL for the heck of it, is probably not that important at least to me, I think it's part of the overbuilt philosphy, I see it as a nice to have not a must have.
Just kind of going through the exercise to see what the options and opinions of the knowledgeable are.
