Question Trac-Loc and Spartan

I think I'm ready to lock it up.
I'm going to drop a trac-loc limited slip in the D35 and go with a Spartan LBL in the front.
This is a daily driver, that the wife drives all the time too, so I don't want the wet road issues with a LBL in the read.

Should make for a nice go anywhere combo.

I'm also considering 17x7 steel wheels off a 300/Magnum/Charger so I can get a 32" tire thats only 9" wide, ala 255/70/17.

I really wish there was an affordable winch mount setup for the OEM bumper. I don't care for the looks of any of the winch bumpers I've seen so far, and $200 for a simple winch mounting plate is ludicrous.

Id put the locker in the rear and the LS in the front, itll make it easyer for you to steer around in the snow and rain. I run a locker in the rear and i love it.
As for winch mount, get someone to build one like the Detorous backbone, it seems easy enough. But good luck and hope it all turns out the way you want
