Not a good idea to put DL's in front drives - steering becomes pretty damned
impossible and unpredictable. If you have to use a front locker (not a
limited slip - even though those have their own idiosyncracies), use one of
the air or cable or linkage manually actuated ones.
Then practice with it - slippery side slopes, such as in off camber mud
situations can become pretty hairy.
