The reason I ask is because I have my new diffs and I'd like to put something in the front before I install it

As long as it's externally operated (air or electric) you don't want anything automatic/limited slip up front because you won't be able to turn.

Re: Lock right in front diff

What locker do you think you can use up front? The only options available that I know of is torsen limited slip and the discontinued Aussie.

I mentioned the same thing the other day - but then he reminded me he doesn't have live-axle.
I'm proud to say I've pretended PVH never existed so not sure if that matters for him or not...lol
