No worries, Dodge ships Dakotas from the factory with a limited slip
in the rear and open front axle. Several people on the list have
added various lockers to the rear axle only without any problems.
Just don't change the axle ratio unless you're going to keep both
axles the same. Also don't use 4wd on pavement, but the sticker on
the sun visor already told you that :-).
