locker breakage for lockers like a detroit, arb or any of the other brands usually comes from shock loading or shock-unloading.
You got both front or rear wheels spinning pretty good then all of a sudden, one tire bites really hard... All the stress gets sent directly to the locker and poof...
That is why sometimes a spool or welded diff is better, but it all depends on the use of the truck.
