locking differential

I have a 6.2 Diesel with a original 10 bolt rear, and with a RPO code G80 original locking differential which doesnt work for me. I use my truck daily and now its winter, and I dont like the fact that it lets the other wheel spin before it grabs. I was thinking replacing it with a torsen unit, but have no idea where to get one, any help? I am located in Finland..
Does a 1987 R10 have a 8,5" 28 spline 10 bolt rear? And is a torsen good or what do you guys recommend?
Thanks advance for replys.
-Ville

Re: locking differential

A detroit locker is great and tough, been using them for years.
