basically, any locker or lsd that replaces the open carrier (or g80) will work fine for you.

You can use those E-z locker or Lock-right, but they are weaker than stock. For light of roading they do fine, but for performance they are trouble. They do make a regular Detroit C-Locker for the 8.5/8.6 now though. There is also the new gearless locker and powertrax no-slip which both go into stock cases w/o the noise of the other lockers.

now parish a locker is loud and annoying. but since you dont drive the truck all the time it would not be so bad. although i will say from experience with a f-bod drag car how annoying a locker is i though about and will prob end up putting one in my daily driver. i have not looked into it for like 1.5 years so i dont know what they have now but if they offer one it will hold.

I'm running that same unit in my 10 bolt so it should fit yours. also a locker isn't bad on the street like everyone thinks it is, once you get use to when to be on the gas and when to be off its perrty quiet and doesn't seem much differant then the stock g80.
