    Front traction control with centre and rear lockers engaged

    I don't have an understanding of how traction control on the D2 vehicles works. I get the basics of how it can tell when a wheel is slipping/spinning but not much beyond that.

    What I'm curious about though, from those with experience, in a D2 with the centre diff lock and a rear locker (be it air, electric or auto) engaged does traction control still activate and assist the front axel/wheels?

    What style of lockers are you running?

    With a single diff locked completely there can be no speed variation L-R on the axle to trigger TC on that axle

    I've had that too. I think its just torsional flex in the axles.

    Where did you see that - my comment was quoting Kaaaiji.

    If he has a CDL and lockers in the front and rear that are activated, the TC will not come on unless there is a fault in the system.
