Does anyone know offhand if an ARB Dana 30 selectable locker from a tj Dana 30 will work in a JK Dana 30? I’m aware of the different Thickness R&P and that’s about it. I read an advertisement that leads me to question this. Any thoughts
Will an ARB locker from a TJ Dana 30 fit in a JK Dana 30?

Back when a every Chevy was a Chevy and something else was exactly something else I'd question the need for that question.
Today I'll be watching this thread to see the current answer and hope that I will like it but I wouldn't be surprised if I don't.

Judging from the part numbers listed
ARB Air Locker - Dana 30 (3.73+)
RD100
ARB Air Locker - Dana 30 (3.54-)
RD101
For both TJ and JK I would have to say that yes they will interchange.

Jk has a larger ring gear for the 44 than most other 44’s built, I suspect that it is true for the 30 but I would have to research it more on the diameters
There is also different spline counts for the 30, you can get a 27 or 30 spline and the 30 gets different bearings that the 27,but that has nothing to do with the model it came from
Well, Qtec is saying the rd100 is for all Dana 30 axles 1971-2018.
for 3.73+ gear ratios...
I'll surmise that the rd101 also works for JK Dana 30s for those that are geared too high.
the rd101 is listed for 3.54 and numerically lower ratio Dana 30 axles so I would have to agree with that as long as you want taller gears.I'll surmise that the rd101 also works for JK Dana 30s for those that are geared too high.
