Locker choices

Do either ARB or Eatons function as a limited slip siff when not engaged or are they completely open?

In NW Oregon about a hour and half north of Browns camp area, we get some snow amd ice, I do alot of hwy and side street driving and because of all that I want a selectable locker

That'd be a wise decision then in which case I'd go for the Eaton E-Locker which has some strong reviews from even John Currie who has them in his main rig.

They are open when unlocked. Besides the Rubicon's rear locker, only the ECTED, a wannabe locker that sucks in several ways, has a LSD function when unlocked.

I suggest Eaton E-lockers for new installs. If you already have a dedicated air source, then maybe ARB if you do a lot of wheeling. If occasional wheeling, I'd still stick with E-lockers.

That said, I have ARB rear and Yukon Zip in the front with a dedicated small air compressor. Both have been flawless. The Yukon is essentially a copied older design from ARB. Then they improved some of the items that were problematic with that design. The Yukon has a better warranty than ARB.
