(1) how does front-wheel drive figure in to a locker discussion - does it? I drove a Nissan Sentra front-wheel-drive for years (until I got the Jeep) and it was very good in the rain and especially in the snow, but this was on paved roads. Jeeps generally don't have front wheel drive.


With a transfer case like mine (a Dana 300) I have the option of putting twin shifters on it. Meaning that I can engage the front and rear axles seperately. This is used mainly for tight turns up a climb, or tight turns in general. By putting the rear axle into neutral, only the front tires will be turning under power, allowing for a tighter turning radius...as long as the front axle is not locked...hence why I will be getting a front selectable locker...but I will most likely be getting an ARB front and rear.
