Now I have only BAS, ABS and EBLD active in 2H and 4H; and ABS and EBLD in 2L. Also deactivated much of EBLD magic on rear by putting a LSD carrier case. EBLD is still active on front though.
EBLD isn't that bad, but has 2 major disadvantages IMHO: 1) it kicks in with a delay, a wheel must spin first; 2) it wastes some axle torque that's killed by applying brakes to the spinning wheel; so you need to rev up to have full effect of EBLD.
yep, euge, it's exactly why the whole lot has to go when in soft stuff. you don't want the power loss. power loss in heavy sand means getting bogged.
