Hey thanks for the info..from what I have heard the Locker is kind of unbreakable., so why not spend $600 for the locker vs $3k for the 9 or 12 bolt?

correct the locker is tough, there are other factors, I am still running 10 bolt for now but I have a lot of upgrades in it ( guardle,mouser axels, welded tubes,new USS 7.73/bearings, do not rember ever thing else) and have a 9 in waiting on the side.
even with the locker you still have several weak links:::
7 1/2 in ring set, week houseing/ weak axels and so on.....
but to each his/her owen, good luck Johnny

These "lockers" are used in straight line racing only, and would eliminate your LSD, for they "lock" both wheels together to spin at the same time, not very good for auto x, or cornering.
