Front locker, winch, both or neither.

Just wondering what choice others have made for their Trolls.
I am not a rock crawler but I am happy to follow the trail less taken.

G'day Mc4by, if it were down to coin of only being able to afford one option I'd personally recommend the winch mate. Lockers are awesome but they can also get you deeper than before into trouble and still need winching out.

Most of my travels are as a solo vehicle, so I'd agree with the above, get the winch first. It makes it a hell of a lot easier to self recover in the middle of nowhere, or even to drag it up a section of track your having trouble with.
I have the factory rear locker, but will also be adding an e-locker to the front when funds allow. Not essential for the majority of what we do, but makes it a bit easier to have some vehicle sympathy when required.

I'm a tourer who likes to get into some pretty remote places, so I'm locked both ends and run a winch with plastic rope. So far have managed to get out of places I would have been still stuck in without the "toys"��

A winch can also be used to clear tracks of fallen trees, etc. And can be easily set up as a flying fox over swimming holes too.

Winch first for sure. Get the locker down the track if you can.

Both is great. But if it came to choice, winch, hands down.

As above winch first, locker later

Another vote for a winch...

winch every time, .
Last 4x4 had 2 x lockers made 4x4ing more gentle on the drive train being able to idle up most hills with ease.
Ill probably fit a locker to the front of my Patrol at some stage, but happy with it as it is now, I have a Warn 9.5 XP


EDIT::: A Patrol with a 50mm lift and say mud tyres will get you most places, a locker will get you that bit further.
As Ben-e says get what you like really depends what style of driving you want to do, slow technical stuff a F/R locker
is a must. If travelling alone a winch could be a life saver
