I have a stock 8.25 (29 spline) and Im looking to lock it or just get a G2 D44. Any input would be appreciated.

Honestly for the price, 8.25 with a locker will the way to go. G2 is so much money for not much improvement

Now 8.25 vs. The D 60 is a different story

The difference in cost between an aftermarket D/44 and D/60 just isn't that much.
