    How many lockers to use for a 6WD M1088?

    Ah, ok so I think I do understand your explanation. So is the tire that has the least traction detected and the power flows to the grippiest tire assuming it is in MODE, or is this not the case, and power flows to the tire with no traction, and thus the reason people want the Detroit style...

    How many lockers to use for a 6WD M1088?

    I think the some of the confusion stems in part from the use of the terms "locked" and "locker". Maybe someone could draw a simple stick diagram to help ?

    How many lockers to use for a 6WD M1088?

    Should I assume that any axle that has a non-actuated locker is locked up all the time? If this is the case, would not scrubbing occur with that axle is engaged or not? Maybe I am wrong. I did some research on Meritor's site. It would seem that they divide their power 50/50 to the rear axles...

    How many lockers to use for a 6WD M1088?

    So for a vehicle that is driven a lot on the highway, a locker in the rear is likely the best because the rear only locks when it is activated by operating in MODE? And there would be reduced tire wear? We need more snow videos of 5 ton trucks to look at what it does when it slips : )

    How many lockers to use for a 6WD M1088?

    Should I use 1 locker or 2 lockers at the rear of an m1088? If only 1, which set of wheels would you put it on?
