How many have you broken?

Dunno mate, try Matty at monster rides www.monsterrides.com.au they do them for the hilux.

Might not be anything out seeing as the lockers haven't been out long

There is a theory that people have, with a locker you doent have to be as heavy on the loud peddle to get the car where you want it, compared to an open diff where you may have to rely on momentum and and a heavy right foot, as "WOODY' found out if only one wheel grabs traction with a tone of revs, you are in for some trouble.

I would put the locker in and see how it goes, the worst case is you have to put a cv in, which is what you are going to do anyway.
I dont know for sure, Just a thought

Way less chance of breaking a cv with a locker.. most cv's break when spinning and then contacting hard ground.. locker stops the wheel in the ais from spinning any quicker than the one on the ground... only over strained if locker used going down hill and all wheight comes on to one axle..
