oh yes sorry forgot to mention

lockers when engaged on icey roads will sledge you down in the direction of the camber or slope of the road

they do the same thing when on real slippery clay and grass

means for very interesting driving techneques :lol:

have hit ice at speed with a lockrite in the rear of my mwb within 2 seconds i was sideways not ideal in that situation. wouldnt recomend it if your planning to go up there get a lsd or air locker worth the little extra coin.
