Default How important/useful is the anti-spin differential?

Hi there,

I'm looking at a new JK and I was wondering how important having the anti-spin differential is. Probably not going to do extreme wheeling, but in our Ontario climate, how useful is it? a 'deal-breaker'?

Thanks for any help!

Hi Welcome to the Site
Jk out of my class, but if its a locker, something nice to have on or offroading and probably cheaper now buying it then later having it added.

Its a very good compromise between an open diff and a locker.

Not sure of the bias ratio....never got this detail from the dealer (I assumed some were around 2 or 3:1), but I can tell you it has great dry on-road manners, and really paid off last winter on ice packed / snow covered 401.

I got it on my 2010 and it was worth it IMHO.
