Limted Slip Differentials with Traction Control vs. E Lockers

i see your experience, and raise you some more ignorance on my part....

what is the downside of having a "lunch box locker" on the front wheels on a IFS 4runner still spining the hub? it's disengaged (if working properly) from the other wheel & drive line, so aside from turning the weight of the gear (whichever your outside wheel is on a given corner) i don't see what it will hurt...???

someone connect the dots for me please.....

:pout:

It is the fact that when you engage your 4wd (anytime you do) you will be locked front and rear and there are actually a lot of times that you don't want the front locker engaged. Like on the gravel or dirt roads.

Simply it will just put a lot of added stress on the driveline when you don't need it.
