Locker / TOD / Hubs...????

[mhill]

So Jo, I am in the same situation. I put a locker up front with manual hubs. I have done nothing reference the TOD. Based on what I have read here if you disconnect the TOD wont you only have 4LOW.

Do you think you will never have a reason to drive in 4HIGH or is it not a good idea to use the TOD in 4HIGH with a locker? ( I am talking about off road, I know you cant use it on the street.) I have done one off road trip with mine since I have added the locker and I used both 4H and 4L.

Anyway, can't wait to see you again in Moab.
Side note, but related topic since both of our upgrades came out of necessity after last years trip!

Mike,
The only reason you would need 4h is speeds over 45 mph. If your doing over 45 with a front locker, you definately dont want it engaged. It will throw you into a ditch faster than you would believe. In fact I would say your likelihood to roll your vehicle would be highly increased. actually, just for reference, both toyota and jeep (the only 2 manufacturers that include lockers from the factory currently, that im aware of), both have safety's built into the vehicle that you can only engage the locker in 4low, and in case of the toyota, only 1st gear. Im not sure if jeep limits you to first gear, but toyota does...

Jo, seems like you got your answer
Now I have to figure out some other tricky wiring I can do for ya....
