| | Unlocked front and rear? we will be starting with the blues and working harder so you should be able to hang most if not all of the day. with one locker you could prob hang all day. |

| Since my took my locker out on Thursday, I wheeled everything I wanted to do open both ends. Knocked the pressure down to 8psi in each tire. Only had to winch once. Rubi behind me got stuck on everything with 2 lockers. Mostly depends on driver and skids. Ok mostly SKIDS!!!
If you are interested in a lock rite I will sell you mine with at fresh pin and spring kit. It is in perfect condition, I just have had no luck with it. |

Just get the skit plates for your diff, front control arms and oil pan. Then use the skills you've learn thus far. You don't need lockers,Oh yea, and an automatic throtle.

| auto throttle? I drive an automatic.
skid plate - oil - check
skid plate - front pumpkin - check
skid plate - rear pumpkin - no go
skid plate - control arms - not yet
and as for skills - I swear by a spotter, I'm blind in one eye and can't see out of the other!
But I'll be there - there's always bypasses and winches! Forcast is partly cloudy and 70. |

| good point about lockers. I mostly didn't use lockers all day as traction was good and the suspension was working well. needed every bit of it on tombstone though.  |

| well thats tombstone and that was alot of fun. Gill finish the skids and then we will work on finding you a deal on a front locker. Ask the guys that have locked the front of there rig first. You will find that it makes wheeling easy. Key is to gain skill now and learn how to pick lines.

| gonna have to back out and regroup for the 4th. Ordered the control arm skids, need to replace a tire. Somehow must have taken a chunk/one of the treads out. Have a 2'x2" bare spot. Oops.
Then I will try the harder spots - plus the wife will be out of town so I'll hang the weekend. |
