here is a practical example of how to use it.


I have a driveway to my cabin, 1 mile long, and my stock 4runner has 11 inches clearance. this road is bony, rockey, rooty, and stumpy. I drive -s l o w- up the trail as I creep in 4wd low. the trail is steep and twisty but nice and slow I can get up there and only scrape my skidplates and hitch once in a while.

now 4wd low is great, but there is a wet stump up ahead and when I creep over that I will spin and sit there. If I hit it at 6mph I would fly over it but I creep as to not damage my rig. so I spin, 4wd is useless when one back wheel is spinning and one front is spinning.

so, I activate the locker. it may not engage instantly but I slowly back 2 feet then creep forward 2 feet then clang, it engages. once engaged both rear wheels are locked together and I am no longer stuck, I proceed forward.

if I -do- still spin, both wheels moving will make the rear end seek traction, the ass end of my 4runner will wiggle and grab what it can. I just do not get stuck anymore having a locker. also, when I am towing big drags, i don't get stuck. I used the locker when i am building trails and
collecting rocks I can't carry by hand. a ford f150 4wd couldn't drag this rock up a hill, but my 4runner did it fine. I have a locker. The locker is King.

so...the above is a practical example. I go slow, slow makes you stuck in some slippery stuff.

in any other example, the same applies. if you get stuck in 4wd, try the locker and if you are gonna get moving, the locker will do it.
