14 bolt q's

allright gents...
my wonder wheel is annoyong =-)
i love mah cheby and how much balls it has but now it's time to make two tires spin instead of one.

usually i'll be accelerating and (not even ballsing it) but i'll have a tire slip and well we all know the story.

so what should i get for the rear?
locker? posi? spool?
and anyone got a link (or hell even better a used one)

Hard to beat the affordable Detroit Locker for the 14 bolt plus it is simple to install - that is what I put in the K5's 14 bolt.

Your options are limited a little on the 14 Bolt Semi-floater. The good news is it sounds like you have an open axle as opposed to the factory Gov-loc (a sort of limited slip) that is weak and proned to explosion. If you do have the open carrier you can get a Lock Right. I have heard good things about them and the price is much better than the $700 for the Detroit. All depends on your wallet and what you want to achieve with the axle.
