If you have D30 front, then be careful, as people have reported breakages associated with giving it heaps....
In the rear, a mechanical locker will tend to make the car a bit twitchy, depending on how harsh the lock/unlock is. You'll get a "clack" sound coupled with a twitch as you transition from trailing throttle to opening throttle as you go around a round-a-bout.....but you get used to that, just be smooth on the throttle in the wet. A JKU will be less twitchy than a JK with a rear mechanical locker, due to the extra wheelbase.

No twitching at all in a jku with a Detroit in the rear, even in the wet, only time you notice it in the blacktop is taking off quickly while turning, makes the tyres light up, best thing I ever put in mine
