    This copy & paste hacker thread should have been diligently erased by Moderator’s/Admin a Cuntload AGO

    READERS:
    “DO NOT” click on any links suggested above

    FWIW-2:
    #Airlockers…..somewhat instant pinion rotation engagement, if understanding of ones driveline gear pressure/release/engage for speed!
    #ElectronicLockers….same same similar but a designed rolling axle engagement to engage, not ideal on harsh switchbacks.
    #AutoLockers, in my opinion, although now built stronger for confusing mechanical river bed rocks are still dangerous on hairpin gnarly mountain corners as they are completely un-selectable pushing forward and off steer

    Sorry to say Tip Old Mate, that Detroit will steer you straight into the bank up the likes of Barkley River switchy back these gnarly days
    Hell of a steep up left that cracker and truly needs selectable traction on/off IMHO.

    My LoKKa by 4wd systems was the absolute best traction aid I ever owned. Had twin ARB lockers on a Hilux previously, the lokka I found much more driveable

    My apologies if came across a wee bit rude the other late night Tip Mate
    All diff locker brands are great these days but I do feel compelled to stress that in certain circumstances/terrain like 170 degree hairpin corners on steep mountains user care absolutely must be taken. Watching mates of old & new over time in front especially descending down gnarly reduction geared switchbacks where their truck keeps pushing forward at 3kmph towards a slippery cliff edge is not fun

    As slow and steady as I’m allowed to wagon go would really appreciate any feedback on whether or not stock auto hubs mini militia ios (turned to true off road lock of course) would survive?
    We really do like the stock auto function back at home in and out of grassy paddocks and are hoping they might be ok out there under heavier locker duress?
    I suggest you to visit Elocker shop and check on by one which is fit for you wagon just purchased it.
