Well, you're better at googling than me. I did find Detroit's Electrac for the Dana 60. I'm not sure how it would behave (unlocked, limited slip mode) in the front of my truck when driving on the street. Didn't Eaton buy Detroit? I wonder if they will combine product lines.
Otherwise all electric lockers I found were for smaller axles like found in Jeeps.
Thanks

Detroit or ARB
I'd put in a detroit or an ARB.
As said before, the Detroit is so so so so so strong. They are tempremental and all, but you can't beat their strength. I run one on my jeep (dana 60) so not all that comparable to the dodge's torque, but I love it! I drove mine on the street 25000 miles a year for 4 years! No problems and that was with 37" and colorado weather!
As for the ARB, I have one on the front of the jeep. It's nice to have the option to lock it up or unlock it, but they are kinda like women (no offense) they are really high maintanence and they are expensive and they require an air compressor!
Good luck

To those few who have broke Detroits, no offense here, but if you broke a detroit locker, you were doing something you shouldn't have been doing and anything back there would have broke.

Here's one

and another
http://reiderracing.com/elocker.htm
Like i said i love Google.
I just googled Dana 60 e locker and got a plethera of hits. Take your pic.
I know Tera Flex has a good one, Ox locker.
But i have an ARB in my Dana 44 FR of my Jeep and love it, i already had OBA before. Old York AC comp.
I had an Auburn LSD in my old 1500 chevy and it worked OK.
It's a hard choice to make and you can spend a whole lot of money.
Good luck
