Default powertrax no slip lockers?

so, a couple days ago this happened...













so now im getting new stuff and upgrading....new steering box and linkages, also new front axle (dont wanna deal with welding stuff on because i am not a professional welder)

so im getting new axles...2 new ones. fronts a dana 30 with a powertrax no slip locker, and the rear is a crysler 8.25 29 spline from a 97 cherokee, also with a powertrax no slip locker and disc brake conversion.

my main questions were...are these good lockers? i mean, obviously not compared to ARB air lockers or anything, but as far as ratcheting lunchbox lockers go, are they decent?

lack of concentration from tiredness, wet road, corner too fast, forgetting i dont have abs...i guess you could say a guard rail got in the way of me trying to go wheeling unintentionally? unfortuniatly it was a cheap gaurd rail with 3 steel cables in between the posts, so all that does is guide your car into the next post...which unfortuniatly for me...was a very beefy I beam

too many emotions?
