I'm trying to find out it's behaviour/manners with it installed in front.

Now, due to circumstances, I drive a fwd Safari, because I have problems with rear propeller. So, I turned it off and drive on front lsd for a week already .

I had a auto locker in my last vehicle, it self centered quite strongly when on the power on hard surfaces.
I had to go around corners in tangents i.e. power on almost straight power off turn in heavy till slightly to far - power on and straight again till I got round the corner, was fine on loose dirt
So on my new vehicle I have a air locker so I can have the open diff till I need the extra traction with it locked

G;day Joe. I'm just wondering as to why you would have it in 4WD while on hard surfaces. Interested in this as I intend to put a Auto Locker in the front.
My thoughts would be to take it out of 4WD when travelling on hard surfaces.

Auto locker is not noticeable in 2wd

How Does the LSD and the Auto lockers go on a muddy/slippery corner under power?
Does it just want to go straight ahead or turn?

Chester was wondering you prefer a good mate or best, go with good I recon.
That said without the best mate you may not be there in the first place.

HAHAHAHA Robo good question.
I would rather a best mate having my back than a good mate standing back and saying i will just bail you out later LOL.
BUT in saying that i would rather be home in a couple of hours than all night.
It's a bit like the chicken and the egg thing hey.

Havent found it to be a problem, driving stlye needs to be slighty modified with a bit of throttle control ie. back off coming into the corner turn in then back on the loud pedal, then back off to straighten up then power out. My Lokka is the best value for $'s and the best overall traction aid ive fitted happy as a pig in slop

That makes me think do I need mates like that, but I guess now I'm showing my age.
