You have it backwards, it should say 3.55 and down (numerically lower) or 3.73 and up (numerically higher).  Basically the reason for the 2 models is there is a carrier break for the gears, so if you plan to run 4.10s, you need the 3.73 and up

i run a lockrite in the rear of my jeep. has worked very well in the last 6 years, the way i see it. if you need to change the case, get a detroit of other full case locker. if you're keeping your old case and want to keep it cheap then go with a lockrite.
the detroit is way stronger and will outlive everything surrounding it.

sounds good i,m just not sure about set up i,m going to buy gauges but it looks a little complicated.
