I want posi in the rear. 8.25C. I want the ARB, but I can do both front and rear with the same money with the lock rite. Are they any good?

"posi" is a Limited slip.. wheras the ARB/similar are LOCKERS.. Which do you want? If you want LOCKERS, I would recommend a full detroit in the back and an OX locker in the front.

and to answer the inevitable question
lockers: when activated both tires turn at same speen NO MATTER WHAT, bad on dry concrete (inside tire goes a shorter distance) torque is equal to both wheels

posi: always on, when one wheel slipps the clutches grab and put torque to the wheel with traction, works fine on dry concrete as it doesnt interfere with the differential gears
