Aussie front locker install

For winter driving, ARB lockers are the best (and most $$) option because they can be engaged/disengaged using air.

OK, that was my brain fart. I mixed up ARB & aussies. Senility, thou art a cruel bitch!

I talked to matt at indy about the whole 'unlock one hub and create a regular 4wd' for snow. He said it doesnt work like that, thats fine for daily dry roads, but with one side locked up all the time, its gonna push you into a ditch in snow. He said that doing that in snow is very dangerous if you drive on any regular basis in snow. (he said if you do it once a year, and are careful, fine, buT not a good idea for a DD in snow)

Another revisit, its been 2.5 years. No issues, still works perfect. I put one in the wife's Trooper RS as well. Just as flawless operation. I highly recommend it for the person building an unstoppable wheeler on a budget. As for driving with the front locked, I drove for some time with the OEM drive flanges, handledfine,but the click was annoying. Just dont get on the gas in a corner.

Im guessing your snow driving time is minimal though, right?
