Diff lock rear

[Richard buttocks]

although i have a ford 8.8 and its in an XJ, i would never choose an auto locker for the rear again.

its extremely unpredictable in wet weather if you arent being SUPER careful and driving like grandma, unless you like going sideways.
i would NOT recommend backing off throttle as it then unlocks and shit goes down fast.

when it unlocks and unloads in a carpark its like a gun going off and draws alot of attention.

aside from that, its great offroad...

That's great information, thanks a lot. I moved away already after the comment from Straubz but this is what I was looking for. So will most likely see how my stock diff is doing once I am back on the trail together with my front air locker. If I change then I will go for one I can switch in and off as I go.
