I was you-tubing axle rebuilds at BFH Garage and he was doing a 2006 rear Rubicon that had a factory helical differential that also air locked.
seems like the best of both worlds, torque sensing and the ability to lock.
I'm wondering if the diff would fit in a regular D44, like maybe one found under the front of a 78 Bronco?
the Rubicon unit does have some kind of sliding pin in the housing that has something to do with the lock ring so I'm thinking that would be an issue.
you can see the pin at 1hr 19min in the video.
not being any kind of a D44 expert, are there any aftermarket units that do this in an older housing?
