What's your budget?

Have you looked into the LockRites? They are pretty much the same style as the Aussie.

The Locrite is a lunchbox locker just like the Aussie.

All true automatic (non-selectable) lockers will let the outside wheel differentiate in a turn. What you are thinking of is a spool.

Nope, no resetting the gears with it.

Have you tried 4Wheelparts?

take a look at summitracing.com, i found a powertrax lock-rite automatic locker for a shade over 400, and it only replace's your spider gears so you dont have to mess around with your gear settings.
