People have done it with SJs and got on pretty well.

best solution for standard axles is ARBs front and rear with uprated shafts... but who's for 2500+ to spend on that!

and they do one for the rear too...

but not half shafts and CVs...

Don't think I'd want to put any kind of locker in the front without some HD shafts and CVs..

Good find! Looks like there's a bit more science to it than a Lockright too, although the same website has a Lockright style diff and calls it a 'progressive' differential lock... Now we just need someone to buy one and tell us if they are any good.

Umm tempted, but only if it was 36 splined. Might just go ARB eventually.
