lsd or locker for aam

I started with a search on this, but there are numerous threads and way too many posts to read.

So, is anyone making an LSD or any type of locker for the AAM diffs yet?

I think AAM is the only one making traction devices for them. I hope someone will eventually come up with something aftermarket, because if this anti-spin breaks, it can't be cheap to replace. $285 for a factory option, but probably more like 4-500 from ******* to replace.

The front diff is the same size as the front diff in the Powerwagon. I'm thinking about adding the same front locker to mine. Any disadvantages to using a front locker only?

depends on the lockar type. I think the power wagon has an e-locker. as long as you can open you front diff up it is great. optimumly you would have a selectable locker front and rear.

normal locker front and rear can cause you trouble in the wrong circumstances. hard to steer/control in tight places.

An auto locker in the rear of these trucks wont hardly ever be felt. A lightweight jeep cherokee wasnt that bad. I was hoping to find that eaton was gonna work their new e locker for the 14 bolt. You will notice in ice or snow but it is something else that is learnable. The front of the power wagon locker sounds good.

Does that include installation? I'm guessing not.
