I'm confused. You want to upgrade but stay with 27 spline? Why? I wouldn't spend money on a 27 spline 8.25. You can get a 29 spline carrier and shafts for the 27 spline housing

I made a mistake and shipped the arb RD112 to Beirut instead of RD93 which holds the 29 spline
so I'm Stuck with 27 spline now. Plus the price of a used OEM 29 spl in Beirut is 300$. They are hard to find and highly demanded the price went high.
Aftermarket beefier upgrade is my only choice. What shall I do /buy?

I mean, you just dumped over a grand on a locker. Get the right one.

There's no way you can return the arb for the other one? You wouldn't need a whole axle, the locker will replace the carrier in the axle so you would only need 29 spline shafts.
