If you are putting the locker into the front diff you don't want the couplers. they only fit the rear.

I ordered my Lockright from "Rocky-Road Outfitters".
http://www.rocky-road.com/suzuki.html
I cant speak highly enough of their service - And the total price delivered to my door in Melbourne was $232.00USD. I had it within a week of placing my order too!
Nobody else that I spoke to came close to that! I will be shopping with them again in the future for sure...
Hopefully you have a 4 pinion front carrier. All zooks after 88.5 went to a 2 pinion front carrier (so I am told), which will not work with the Lockright. If you do have one of these, a 4 pinion carrier WILL bolt straight in, and you can use a rear diff 4 pinion carrier with the front sidegears slapped into it with no problems... (Sorry if you already know all this!)
Good luck with the project!

Powertrax Lockright Lockers
For ease of install and people who are on a budget, Powertrax Lockright lockers are hard to beat. Of course, selectable lockers such as ARB air lockers would be much more desirable, the Lockrights get the job done for a fraction of the cost. Many differentials have a set of spider gears which allow the outside tire to turn faster than the inside for a smooth turn. These lockers still allow for this at low torque. But when you add torque or are heading strait down the road the locker automatically delivers 100% lockup to keep you moving.
These have been running strong and have held up for years, and will for years to come. We feel the Lockright is a better product than others on the market and cheaper too.
Lockers with out couplers still utilize factory side gears and can be used in both the front and rear differentials. Lockers with couplers completely replace all spider gears for those wanting all new components and can only be used in the rear axle.
