Locker questions?
Got a stock 01 4.0 Cherokee with a c.825 in the rear and a Dana 30 up front, what I was wondering is what upgrades should I do if any before I throw a rear locker on?

I notice a power loss with 32's stock gearing on very tough hills. But I think for normal wheeling you would be fine without gearing.

unfortunately there are limited options for the 29 spline 8.25
people seem to have good results with the spartan locker although its relatively new. Its basically a copy of the lock-right right, which is a simple design, few moving parts, and works great.
powertrax makes a no-slip locker. which i'm not a huge fan of. its supposed to be smoother acting than the lock-rights, but as parts wear, they tend to become tempermental and make a little noise.
Obviously the detroit locker is a good choice as well, along with arb, but those are up there in price.
