PowerTrax/ Ford 8.8/ 4.56 gears 33" tires

My I6 is delivering power now that I have 4.56's!!!

The Full locker is jumping the rear end left and right.... I am in 4th and I pulse the gas (accelerate fast)... I do this several times and the rear end will jump left or right... is this normal?

Mine is in a D35 and it does the same thing. I asked a guy at TOR (TN Offroad) and he said it's normal.

Have you had your jeep in the snow....
how bad is the full locker in the snow?

I have not had it in snow, however, Dave Taylor, prior owner of my locker, said he did and it was a good experience. I keep waiting for him to chime in here since he drove with the "no slip" for over a year front and rear, I believe.

For a daily driver you can't beat the a selectable locker. I'm saving my pennies extra hard to get ARBs as my jp is my DD.

The time I drove my rig in the snow/mostly ice, I didn't notice any problems. I left it in 2wd just to see how it would do and didn't have any problems with the back end wanting to slide. I've got the No-Slip in the rear.
