Why did you edit out the front locker sections? Do you have a landcriuser in the backyard? [biggrin][thumbsupbig][bigrolf]

I had the opportunity to compare HDC and non-HDC down a well, hill, yesterday,, low first and without HDC it just seemed to cope,, no mad speed increase or anything really, the combination of gravity, terrain, and ratios all seemed to work fine at sustaining a very controlled descent,, HDC on and,, well, the speed remained the same but the abs was working often,, V8 Ian was the car infront and he had HDC on all the time,, lots of brake lights!!

I tend not to use HDC,but! on one track where a land cruiser lost control.. A manual and the consensus is that he de clutch and braked hard and then all four wheels locked up and away he went. The HDC with engine braking in first , manusl, kept the car very controllable.
