My old Chevy shortbed had a rear locker. Sucker would crawl up anything. I got alot of confidence driving that tank.

The Xterra is a totally different offroad experience. I think it is closer to my truck now with just the rear sway removed, better rear suspension and Muds. But on hard dirt with small loose gravel on an Arizona hill I sure miss my locker. Just enough to get you through the undulation with out digging the hole deeper for the next guy.

If I ever get the cash a locker is going in. Lots more trails I can go on.
