GREAT FUN!!
Still took it easy, still learning.
What ratio is you go again?
63%..........
Dam. The good ones..Quote:

Heavy steering with the front locker in. I have found if your steering is heavy with the diff lock in you do not need it engaged because you have full traction with both wheels for it to be heavy. When you really need the locker you don't fell the steering as being heavy because you don't have full traction in both wheels all the time you don't feel the steering as being heavy. It feels quite normal to steer. Just a little note.
And if you had LoKKa that wouldnt be a problem
Again legend, I didn't say it was a problem.Quote:

Soooo @Chubba...... digging up an old thread ................ still happy with your front locker? With your experience of use what would you advise someone (me) considering getting a front e-locker (with std LSD in rear & std gear ratios) for a remote area touring vehicle. I see a locker, not so much as something to allow me to go more 'extreme', but rather as a means of reducing the risk of momentum related damage a long way from anywhere. Insurance if you like....... the sort of thing I'll be happy not to use, but find it reassuring to know it's there when I need it.
Cuppa. Sorry for the late response mate but I would say to anyone considering a front elocker in a patrol to go for it. If you can afford the coin do it. Getting on for the reasons you stated the front locker will deliver in spades.
Just do it!!
