However untill then I just pull the fuse on mine when in deep sand. You don't forget it's out either, as every idiot light on the dash comes on untill you relace it.
Works great on rocky an slippery hills, it's only in the heavy sand that it causes problems for me.
Seen TCS working in ssand for the 1st time the other week,
The Disco was hopping all over the place like a Kangaroo.
I guess it would depend on when the 'puter got wet but probably right.Quote:

Still like the idea something would still work on the vehicle in that situation. [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif[/img]
Lockers are very harsh on the drive train.
TC works well for what it is, the Haultech stuff should be great.
$$$ will be on par with lockers.
TC is still way better than having plain open diffs.
Stick with TC and if you want later fit lockers if needed.

my personal advise
is tc and lockers dont mix
if you do get lockers front and rear
make sure you pull the fuse or get a switch
i've been here before with this comment and i aint going back :twisted:
I would not fit lockers unless the vehicle was going to be going hardcore 4wding every weekend :wink:
I think if you were going on a pretty serious trip, where you knew there'd be some hard tracks it'd be worth it. For the norm I'd say traction control would be pretty good, get you out of trouble.
I reckon when the traction control, a heap of right boot and some muddies will get you no further it is time to break out the winch. i can't justify the cost of lockers.
