    Ouch!!!






    ...and where it happened at. The picture doesnt do justice on what the terrain was like. Damm tree roots coming out of the side of the embankment is how the damage happened.

    I'm going to swap out the Aussie locker for a powertrax no slip which is much quieter around corners. The Aussie locker ratchets around corners and makes a loud clicking sound. I don't like it, it's way to loud for a daily driver.

    They both fully lock the rear and work the same. The no slip is more expensive though because its s better design.

    That looks familiar pretty much what I did to my passenger side. Where are you're rock sliders?

    Never ordered them. Kinda wish I had because this is going to hurt the wallet I'm sure.
