My stock 4runner goes incredible places with the rear e-locker. I think those that don't have it might not know how much the world changes with the locker. It is like a totally different machine.

Generally I don't run locked all the time. I pop it in an out depending on terrain to reduce wear and tear on the drive shaft. I also have it modified to run in 2wd. This way I don't have to shift in an out of 4wd which gives me better turning radius. If it gets just a bit sloppy-I just pop the locker on-get through the goo and then shut it off.
