4.88 are available, they are standard in the majority of auto surfs so fairly common.

I would recomend the lokka in the front first, without the lokka they tend to spit spider gears or spit teeth from the crownwheel as soon as you head bush but the lokka strengthens the diff. (I han't had a drama with my front diff in 18months running 35's and I go bush every second weekend)

The lokka in the front is more effective than in the rear on an IFS vehicle, so go the front first if cash wont stretch to doing both at once.

I understand why you'd want an Air locker in the front (on/off to steer)
But why a lockright in the rear? Do you know what happens when you're going around a corner in the wet and you're locker engages?? :?
