Not post 2017....;)
you don't really need front locker if you move the weight balance over the rear that does have a locker or lim slip I think ford uses. I don't have front in anything and they do good. pretty sure they have atko in load ratings for that, got the most miles out of the other ones I tried, goodyear and that are useless again in 40 those normally went 60-75 as work tires, half ton non work 80-100

We are in the enhanced risk for severe weather today. Windy as usual right now transporting that moisture northward.

It flurries this morning. Nothing really sticking.
Going to be nice this afternoon. Tomorrow is going up to 50 again. Good because I’m taking a new box and mattress to the camp.
I’ll try and get a few pictures.

Just saw that on the news. Looks like everyone is going to get wet in the next few days. Then it will be here for the weekend. :)
As long as it’s gone for Monday. If it’s nice, I’m going out with @PBishop , and @ToolmanJohn and the wives. In the valley. Should be good, if the weather is good.

I just looked outside and the snow is really coming down. It can stop anytime, thank you. :)

The truck was empty, there was no weight. And I do have a manual rear locker. But the frame in the front was on the ground, and the rear passenger wheel was in the air, and I’m not sure that a front locker would even have gotten me out.

that's what I'm saying, frame wouldn't have been on the ground if you had weight on the rear, you could just carry your 500 around not sure it would be great for mileage but when you do get stuck youd have that

I’ll get that (90% chance as of early this morning) on Wednesday. So much moisture in my new road from weekend snow that I could only work about a fourth of it today. Got stuck in my 4 wheel drive F-250 and only barely was able to pull it out with my tractor...:eek:

Not a good way to polish the rims! HA!
