Are there any cons to running an air locker in the rear end? Ive heard some people say since it constantly spins it wears the o ring out quickly, however if you didnt have lock out hubs would it not do the same in the front end as well? Any how any cons? thanks

Yes, the carrier always spins in the front too. Haven't heard of anyone having problems with the seals wearing out front or rear.

Con: price  ! Pro: with that price you gain an onboard air source for airing up tires, without losing your A/C  . Price out any other selectable locker AND and onboard air system ... |

I was thinking about the Yukon zip locker, for an extra 50 bucks they will warranty it for life to my understanding. Jimmy Keating has one in the front of his cj5 and hasnt had any issues with it. And i have the on board air system already in the jk so all i would have to do is plumb it for the locker.
