Let it be so you can continue to preach your false information.

I said in certain situations. I never said what you claim. Nor can you prove it.

Perfect example is a couple of weeks ago my brother went right up this off camber slick trail no problems.

My xj locked slid off the hill, our other buddy with a locked yota slid off the hill. In this situation the open wheeled jeep won.

And actually did great the whole day.

And I stand by what I said. Not what you guys make up.

the only situation where an open diff will outperform a locked diff is a Uturn

Parallel parking.

I'm glad I'm not the only one that feels the urge to make "out perform" into one word.

I would say that had alot more to do with the tires he was running. I can personally say the federals are not as great in off camber situations as some other tires.

And as far as running 38's.. If its your DD and you only wheel once a month, why the hell did you even suggest 38's?

No, it was 100% because of our lockers. It was simple to tell. When Kelvin hit the hill his *** end took him off to the side. He was locked in the rear. When I hit the hill, my front end slid off the hill. I am locked in the front.

What I am amazed at is that I actually have to explain myself. As if I would just figure you guys would already know this stuff? Most of they guys I know who have been wheeling for years know it. Can't figure out why you guys don't?
