    I was hoping to work in a trade with the seller for my ARB locker or Warn XD9000 winch. Unfortunately, he isn't interested in the wheeling stuff anymore.

    I thought about it and decided that I would rather have the 5.38s than a locker right now to help push the large rubber things. The big part of it is that I cannot get the 5.38s everyday but can buy another ARB when I have the budget for it. My wife and I are seriously looking into buying a house so I can't justify a $1000 purchase right now... otherwise I would love to have ARBs F+R with 5.38 gearing.

    I posted the ARB locker on this site and on the planet. If the gears sell, there's no way I'm giving up my locker and will be rollin' with the locker & 4.56 gearing to Moab. Wish me luck
