I agree,,,I use the brake lever trick and it works out great.
Only time I've ever gotten stuck was in real deep snowcone like hard compressing snow that lifted under the gas tank. The added clearnce from OME springs cured that problem.
I think LSD works good at higher speeds (you can't use a gen 2 factory locker over 12mph) on Ausie looking washboard roads and snowy roads at high range speeds.
Cheapest and easiest swap is to find M.S. LSD axle (plenty of them around) and put the V6 front in <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />with a locker.
