I have already used it on my Bronco and I just got it last month.

Can you send me a link? I'm curious now.The video on Youtube from awhile back shows that the Bronco's traction control doesn't work well at all. If you plan on going off road you need a rear locker AND winch minimum. The front locker will keep you from needing to winch so much. If it's a mall crawler then you don't need either

Whenever people compare the price of the BB vs the Base they seem to automatically include the cost of the automatic transmission and the mid-package. It's really not a huge jump in price from base to BB, but it almost seems pointless to make the jump from Base to BB without getting the mid-package, so I see why people factor that cost in.Don't need the Squatch pkg. and I like the radio upgrade/voice recognition with the Mid Package that is not available on the Base. I also like the Sandstone interior which isn't available in the base. The BB build is only around $2500 more than the base-squatch.
Duh? the lockers letting you push the drive train beyond the breaking point is a stupid argument.. but I guess you gotta make up something to justify not having lockers. An idiot can break anything if he tries hard enough. The lockers will actually let you climb over an obstacle instead of doing a full send over it- which is a great way to break stuff. The BLD system on the Bronco is weak- you can't depend on it to help you if you are stuck. Watch the video that I posted a few posts up. The Bronco system didn't do much of anything. Hopefully they can reprogram it and get it working better.I'm going controversial here
Lockers as a piece of equipment are fantastic.
The actual need for them is way overrated.
One of the the best examples of this statement out there:
This is a stone stock 2012 Wrangler Sport with open diff's....
...and another thing to consider, locked differentials will let you push your drive train beyond the braking point, while BLD type systems will stop within the limits of the vehicle. It changes your thinking from 'can I make this?' to 'should I really try?'
Not open diffs. He says in the comments that the Jeep has traction control. Watching the video, there are several instances where the traction control kicks in and he likely wouldn't have made it without that.I'm going controversial here
