Well this what Im looking at either Spider Gears or Eaton, I will be starting to drive my truck in the snow starting next year. So if you have any suggestion or a different brand that seem to work better please let me know or if you got great price some where that would help too.....Thanks

A factory locker would be better in the snow. to get both tires to engage in snow you'll have to spool up the torque input to get the pads to engage. that being said, I got an eaton for upstate NY, eaton is much more fun in the summer!
