Default what rear end carrier are you running?

I am considering switching to a 31 spline carrier so I can run 31 spline axels in my rear. I've been doing alot of looking around and just cant decided which carrier to go with. It seems like some might be decently priced but not strong enough and others are very expensive and would probably be overkill on a moderately modified fox body that would mainly only see street driving.
What are you running and how modifed is your car?

traction lock is just fords term for posi....the ford racing unit is a traction loc = has clutches to control wheel spin side to side......the auburn is a non rebuildible unit that uses cones and springs IIRC, I'd go with the ford racing unit for your needs as it can easily be rebuilt and on the cheap
