For fcks sake

If you need a locker at those speeds, I'd venture you are over using it at lower speed too.

Please tell me what I am missing here???

At a HH they had a pretty tall steep muddy hill and said the H2s wouldn't make it up only H1s (H1 w/ wore tires couldn't even make it up).

I followed the lead H1, needed a little run but had a creek at the bottom so couldn't get much speed. low range everything locked TC on normal.
It kept pulling the engine down from all the slippage, still made it up but barely.
went down and tried it later after the stock H2's and one H1 couldn't make it up. turned to TC2 to allow slip and worked much better w/ more speed.
w/o locker it may not have made it. there was two of us running true mud tires (both of us made it), the others were stock TA, only way for them to make it was run on the sides where it wasn't muddy and not as step.


I like to decide when I want to run e locker not GM's lawyers.
