Listen kid, Because everyone, except apparently you, is trying to bring things to a better level, I ignored your first shot in the other thread and made a joke at your second one here.
Don't mistake kindness for weakness.
It's up to you where this shit goes from here?

I've always been a fan of Detroit rear/ARB front combo (Real Detroit, not TT) but started really thinking about it.
An ARB is basically a spool when locked. Both sides turn identically, regardless. This makes it a bitch to steer while locked and is why I've always opined that a selectable locker is a necessity in the front.
A Detroit, however, allows either wheel to "overdrive". IOW, while going around a corner, the outside wheel can spin faster than the inside is being driven.

I'm just wondering if this would make the Detroit a good candidate for front axle use on a daily driver.

Please don't jump in with a bunch of second hand opinions, I'm looking for actual first hand experience.

Has anyone used a real automatic locker (Detroit or any of the lunchbox lockers that work the same way) in the front of a Disco and how is it for daily driving?

it's great, try it in the bathtub the electric current takes some of the pain out of it.
just don't use it and the toaster at the same time you might trip a breaker and not get the full effect.

Tried a rabbit in the blender once.. It didnt think it was such a good idea at the time.. but that doesnt count as its just a third party expirience.

Nope, you can't actually see him in that picture. He's in the pants, approximately 6 inches behind those nuts.

But joke apart, this thread really is entertaining. When is the moderator coming back from holidays???

Keep it up.

Red, please do a search before you reply. There are at least 37 threads on putting your penis in the blender. ...and by that I mean yours specifically.
