Sorry for my dater info, it's been a while since I looked into them. But I'm still finding them for under $750.

Looking at the car-part site, looks like 2011+ Superdutys.
Looks like complete axles with 3.73 and lockers are going for under $500 in my area. Other ratios seem to be more expensive.

I would have to make a guess that shipping from CO to Lower Alabam' would kinda negate that savings.
But that picture might help someone out that way.
You had my hops up, on a $600 e-locker, but alas, that seems to be older information.
Thanks for the thoughts, though.
Although I despise doing contracts out of dive hotels, looks like I may need to take the car this fall.
I imagine any form of 10.5 limited slip/locker is just going to go up in price, but maybe for the spring, I can have Big Red up an hauling.

- I didn't realize the Gov Lock was a clutch type diff. All the youtube videos seem to show basically a full lock after they slam into that locked mode.
In my experience they lock up much "tighter" than a typical clutch and spring limited slip.
I think a G80 should be great for what you're doing. You'll get used to it and it'll be second nature on how much throttle input to give it and get it to lock up. I like to 2 foot them. Drag a little brake, spin it up to the lock point, then keep it on the converter to keep it locked in as I go through the obstacle.
Most of the bad rap they get is from people that dont understand them
