Default Locker with Limited slip carrier?

I'm locking the front and rear here soon. I'm gonna start with the front but I adventually want to put a lockrite in the rear. I have a D35 with limited slip. I was cautioned by a yota guy (general idiots) that a lockrite wont fit in my D35 limited slip...is this true?

Yes that's true. The carrier on a limited slip is machined different than an open carrier because of the clutch pack and it will not accept the lunch box locker.

Swap out the d35 for something better. Then lock it.

Related question: My "93 XJ has the shift-on-the-fly system for the front diff, but the diff (Dana 30) is an open diff (no locking hubs, of course). Can anyone tell me whether whether a lock-rite or similar locker will work? It seems to me that it will, but I'd like some feedback first. Thanks.
