LSDs are still useless with a tire in the air, I'll be the first to recommend the ban hammer for this dude when it turns out he's just trolling the **** out of everyone

If LSD comes stock then that would be awesome if I had them front and rear.

Only came in rear axles. Some d35's and 8.25's had it. I'm not sure about the d44 though, I've never came across a stock d44 with LSD at least.

Holy goodness. I <3 dumb people. They make my problems seem trivial.

1) Look forward to this video evidence of proof
2) I hope he continues trolling
3) I hope is is actually trolling and not really this dumb

Ban yourself for being ignorant. What I said is true. I have the video. And am working on posting it.

Can't wait to hear the backpedaling.

Front or rear tire opposite sides at least 6" to a foot off the ground. I will creep, no bumping up.

I am sure you boys already have the excuses lined up!
You need a front tire off the ground and the opposite rear tire like you originally claimed. Or do it in 2wd with a the rear tire lifted.

I can't balance the dag gone Jeep! The front is touching so lightly I could take one arm and easily lift the front high so the back touches. Its just teedering.

Just put a jackstand under the axle tubes at opposite corners of the jeep to get opposite tires off the ground. Put it in gear, walk away, and be amazed at how far your jeep doesnt move!

You cannot be serious. What is wrong with you?

anyone else notice the only lockers he knows about are lunchboxes or air lockers doesn't mention e-lockers or cable lockers or detroits or welded spiders....

and to add to what everyone else has said i have a finely tuned 4.5" suspension (for the most part ie good shackle angles and longarms and such) and theres places i cannot go that my buddies 3" lifted short arm suspension 35's with lockers front and rear goes with ease...
