From what I've read on the subject, I would choose ATRAC on the front and rear axels, over a single rear LSD. Less maintainance, better traciton up front. Add some great tires, and it's all good.
Don't forget...LSD on the front axle is not a benign thing to most people. LSD up front will alter the steering feel and turning radius...in a bad way. It will add a lot of understeer and stiffer feel. Over time, this may lead to more wear & tear to the steering and front axle.

ATRAC is good because it is totally absent in daily driving...it is only there when you need it. It does not cause more wear & tear in daily driving. It adds no weight to the vehicle or axle. Simple and elegant solution to the open diff.
