    I don't know Sal.... I don't see any "benefit" of 4.7+lockers over 5.7+QDII. While the 4.7 is strong and lockers will make it more capable, it still wont be any stronger or more capable than the 5.7/QDII combo. I think you're a bit attached to the 4.7 of yours.

    It's probably because I drive slow on the street and trail so the extra HP from the hemi is wasted on me. The QD of course in 4LO is locked up but you loose control with these systems and it's a complicated system as well. The simple open diff with lockers is dependable and cheap to fix. Now if I played in the mud like some of you then yes I would want that hemi as well for sure.

    Or towing or driving in the mountains (long steep grades).....

    95% when I'm off-road I'm not in 4-low. The QDII system is very predictable, normally I never even know it locked up even while going up climbs with the tires coming off the ground. It works so well its like being locked 100% of the time.

    I only use 4-low for steep climbs that I want to take slow.... gear reduction for better throttle control and reduced drivetrain load.

    If I had the chance to go back I would grab a QD for sure and save the money it will cost just get the qt locked up. But at this point it's not worth it obviously and if your wheeling in 4hi you need to find bigger stuff to crawl over bro LOL

    I guess the Hemi can handle 4-hi whereas the 4.7 will struggle.

    Lol you also wheel with plenty of 3.7L QT1 rigs so if they can handle it you shouldn't "need" 4-low.
