Okay, well I'm sure we can find a time for all of us to get together. I want to go down to Coal Country and play in some of the strip mines.

Okay, My Wj is more of a highway jeep but a weekend offroader. So the No-slip locker would do me better. I think it would help me on the trails and when it snows up here.

i just ordered a lock right for the front and i'm waiting for an aussie for the rear and it's my daily driver. hopefully i dont skid all over the place in the snow haha, but the idea is to be more than ready on the trails. however for your applications i think the no slip would be fine

Ratcheting lockers help you avoid getting stuck in the snow but make the back end kick out a lot easier. Not bad at all on the highway though.... you wont even notice it unless your on a tight on/off ramp but then you'll only hear it click a few times.

bryan your best bet is a aussie or lock right in the front and open in the rear that way when ur running down the highway its open and then it locks up when you put it into 4 wheel, mine does kinda pull the front end when its in 4 wheel on the pavement but i dont really run it in 4 wheel on the pavement

I'll figure out the locker situation but right now I need hooks and armor. Ofcourse I basically have to get custom made parts because no one makes stuff for WJs. So a RC trip for me, may not be til the summer or next semester when I get back up to Willaimsport.
