Don..Yes a locker setup can be installed..as well as a plain old Torque
Biasing limited slip...Or both... in the 5 speed case...Main case is the
same, so adding a locker case during a rebuild is the time to do it. All it
takes is cubic $$$..call me if any questions.

Don,
Just a suggestion ... if you do talk to Daryl about this, ask him about a
Peloquin LSD in there instead of the locker. Since you're ready to go to
the trouble/expense, the LSD might be a good alternative depending on
your use.
