Yeah, thats obvious. Any street driven truck will need to be able to unlock to turn. The most successful crawlers(1/1) are locked front and rear. Unlocking them causes traction loss and tire spin, neither of which you want when your crawling. How many guys out there are crawling with open diffs? Thats a serious question. Anyone crawl with open diffs?
