The dx3r is in the ax10 with dig - this allows for locked running, free rear (for some climbing situations when rear will drive will cause you to flip), locked rear (allows a tight turning radius as front pulls reara around)

So dig locks the rear wheels so they drag instead of spin ?.

A 3 position can lock the wheels so that they drag, let them freewheel, and have normal 4wd. Some older digs were 2 position that did not have freewheel and were used primarily for tighter turning. Freewheel is good for some climbing when the axle is trying to drive under an obstacle, and for running down steep slopes.
