if you have lsd in the rear, i would go front.
also you would need a new carrier if you had lsd and you were gonna lock the rear.

but if you are open, i would go rear first.

OX locker is the best of the best.... Better then ARB too, yet more affordable.

This topic has been beaten to death. Use y signature and do a search. Reason I'm saying that is so many older members have once answered this question and gave examples why. Some ppl say front so you can pull yourself outta things. Some say rear. Do the search, just on lockers and go by thread titles. Good luck brother

That's debatable but won't start in this thread. To answer the op answer just search see what you can afford and if want to do each person has an opinion about front or rear first.
