Well... the rear differential on my JGP grenaded the other day, and assuming the dealership doesn't want to cover it, what should I replace it with?

Auburn Pro or an Eaton posi. Many peple here have gone with the Detroit locker but I am not too sure on the street manners with that one.

Detroit Locker for rock-crawling, Eaton or Auburn Pro for street. I'm getting my Eaton installed next week.
