I’m a bit late to this discussion, but I have a couple observations.
The original poster mentioned wheels (plural), so I’m not sure the locking differential would provide the benefit they’re after.
On my wife’s 2005 Chevy crew cab, it experienced alot of wheel spin when we first bought it. After a while, we put different tires on it: problem solved. If I remember correctly, they are Cooper Discoverer H/T LT. A similar tire from other manufacturers would probably help as well.
