I am guessing the Jeep could squeel tires and flip itself 180 deg with a spool in the rear! Dont think I'm ready for the driveability issues of a spool in that little thing, especially since the wife drives it a bit in the summer. I think we would all get over the quirks of a lunchbox locker, but for the price, I will just wait till I regear and likely go with selectables.

Actually,I think that the vehicle would have fewer drivability issues with a spool in the rear because it is consistent and predictable. With the NoSlip, there is about a quarter turn of the driveshaft before it engages and the locking and unlocking can be unpredictable at times.
I am the foremost authority on my opinion.

Don't even mess with the Dana 44. Go right to a 60.
