Me, LockRite Fr., PowerTrax Rr on a Burb; works great, then again, I don't get airborne deliberately.:D
 
I spool'd my dana 44 and I love it so far. It is more work to get around tight corners and whatnot, but if you are on a budget it will get you to the top of trail while an open diff leaves you stranded :D

why not get thick gears? run 5.13 thick gears and you can use the carrier you have. they are cheaper than thin ones anyway. then you can run a lockright if you want.

I didn't see any thick gears avalable for a D60 front. I have them for my 14 bolt rear though. For the D60 I have a ring gear spacer that does the same thing as a thick gear set but I'd really like to avoid using it. :rolleyes:
