My CRD with the NV242 transfer case and the ESP did not offer the limited slip diff as an option. Is there any reason that I should not install one in the rear?

I think you'll find what your looking for in the 4x4 section. If you are going to put in a locker make it a good one. Maybe an air locker! I'm a very tame guy when it comes to 4 wheelin, but an air locker has to be the best of both worlds? It certainly is the expensive way to go. Last I looked the consensus in the 4x4 section was that there was no reason not to use a locker with the electronic traction control system.

05 Limited CRD. Bought it new. 112k on the clock now.

GDE Eco-tune, rear differential drain plug (drilled and tapped the pumpkin), transmission pan drain plug, Fumoto oil valve, fuel filler neck restriction removed, front hitch, Hayden fan clutch, Sears P1 battery since 08, Mobil 1 5w40, 5 volt glow plugs, DIY timing belt at 109k

I believe that I read the combination of SelecTrac, ESP and LSD was not considered a good mix by Jeep and that is why LSD was dropped in '06. On another post someone said they were running lockers though.

I love ARB products and their lockers are amazing but they come with major maintance issues. It is not uncommon to have to rebuild an ARB locker every 3-5 years. Also stay away from ARB's air compressors like the plague. Buy a an refillable CO2 tank from a company like THE SOURCE to run your ARB lockers. Don't get me wrong I like ARB's they're just higher maintainance than Detroits.

I had the same thought, trac-locs can be had for as little as $140+s/h new online. I don't NEED a lsd, but I WANT one.

Trac-loc + short wheelbase + snow/rain + wife driving = very nervous spouse!! It would be nice off-road but that"s about it. I wouldn't think there would be a benefit with ESP. Wish I could add ESP.
