The catch to make it as-effective as the WH would be to leave it off most of the time, to allow pressure to build, then turn it on right before some lock is needed (so that it achieves lock quicker than QDI.).
I've been playing with them a bit, as I've just wired up LEDs to indicate when the diffs are locked and by how much.
But yeah the hard part would be actually finding some, and installing them in the WJ pumpkins, if even possible? I'd assume the solenoid increases the size of the QDII centre compared to the QDI.

It's a totally different differential, they use the Chrysler 8" I think it is so the transplant would be the whole axle assembly. I'm wondering if the width is no good otherwise it would be a similar swap as the JK but again in the States where they would be a dime a dozen it doesn't seem to be covered. I agree activation would be the easiest part of the build, I don't even see any need for progression, it could be on or off like an air locker and still be way more effective than any other option.
