Re: K20 regear.

in slippery on road conditions, i would rather have no locker. anywhere. if you are locked in the rear and drive accordingly they are ok. to have a locked front and rear in 4x4 on a slippery road would be a mess.

my favorite thing for a front if you must have something and dont want to dump a wad of cash on an arb, is a powr-lok or however they spelled it. a clutch type limited slip that can be tuned with variations of clutch pack. i had the same one in the same truck set up light and then again heavy. in iowa corncob snowfields the tightly wound set up was the awesome. not nearly as easy to drive on a slippery road.

i would leave it open, unless this is going to spend a frequent amount of time in situations off road where it is very muddy or there is a lot of axle travel involved. locked rear and open front will take you a lot of places. my jeep is set up this way, and the only time i ever really want the front locked is in deep 18+ inch colorado snow.
