Please do not cross-post.

It's against the site rules for several reasons.

Any updates? Did you get to try them out? Well, you'll be ready for the spring rausch creek rally if you haven't.

The lockers where the best investment ever, for this truck. It's like night and day now with them. I had to use them just this Saturday in the snow. I got the truck suck a few times this weekend in about knee deep snow. But as soon a flip the switch to lock the rear lockers, I could not get the truck stuck any more in the snow. But one big thing you need to know with lockers, is when you lock the front locker you can not steer any more the truck will only go straight and if you try to steer you will brake you arms off. But over all it made the truck like a tank now. The truck should had these from day number one. Snice I installed the lockers I have not used the winch any more in the mud. But I haven been in really deep mud yet. Like before Installed the lockers I have had the truck up to the top of the seats in mud.

Video on install or a video on using them???
Can't turn because of no power steering? I have lockers in all 3 axles and turns perfect at all speeds with all 3 locked. Just curious. I don't have air lockers but wish I would have put them in! Maybe next time.

I have a few video on you tube with lockers engaged. They are on this site somewhere as well i think.
