Power Trax Locking Diff - Question

http://www.jegs.com/webapp/wcs/store...tegoryId=13557

Unfortunately the LS differential box wasn't checked by the previous owner

and I've been struggling with an open end since 01. I'm looking at least expensive best outcome - kinda best bang for the buck. I've priced complete LS center sections and complete rears also having work done by shop specializing in drive trains. Every option is more $$$ than this - which I can do in my own driveway on a Saturday afternoon - probably a 2 - 3 beer job

.

My two questions are: Is there anyone out there (must be at least one) that has used this product whom can comment on it's effectiveness and ease of installation / positive or negative feedback also appreciated. And, which part number will I need for my 99 w/the Dana 70 (I'm pretty sure that's whats' in the rear). Thanks. I still can't imagine a 4 X 4 w/out at least an LS in the back - kind of makes it a 2X2 eh?
