lockers on snowy roads?
i am seriously thinking about getting a lockright locker from rustys this week. they say it has some slip for turning, but i want to know if anyone here has one and drives on icey and snowy roads. what happens?? how does it act? i need to know how my jeep would act on ice or snow before i get this since its my DD and about 90% on the road

if you drive with your head, not your foot, you will be fine.
in a front application people say "OMG IF YOU TAKE A CORNER IT WILL GO STRAIGHT"
which is true if you give it throttle when in 4wd trying to turn.
I have had zero issues in the snow, with a locked rear i can get around most corners in 2wd no matter how the snow is, if its really terribly bad, simply slow down and make the corner.
