An exhaust will do very little for you whereas the locker can make all the difference in the world. Not really much of a choice to make.

Yep for strictly off road sake if your only going to have one locker the front is where it should be.

Why even bother to ask then if you do what others tell you not too by 2-1.

Waste of time responding to your posts for help.

You know just as well as I do that %50 of posts asking for help are a waste of time.

I didn't say I specifically would go against the poll, did I? If you thought it was a waste of time, then you shouldn't have bothered in the first place. I waste a lot of my time trying to explain diagnostics to people and it falls on deaf ears... I try not to insult them after though.... Jeez..... I said it depends on what deals I can grab.... If I can find a locker cheap enough, it'll be first.... If not maybe exhaust, or something even different, such as lighting.. Seems my lights suck anymore at night out in the woods..
