Was that an ARB forgotten to turn off ?
Yes I do have the Dana 35 rear axle, but I belive that if I go easy on
the throttle while turning I might get away without breaking my axles
right?

Oh no this guy had a detroit locker and it was on a YJ, with quite a few
miles on it and he's even used it heavily offroad. He said it was his fault
and he should have handled it differently.
I did speak to one guy who said his son had a rockcrawler type setup on his
jeep, and that the rear end had a spool. I asked how in the world did he
drive it around on the roads, and he said his son put some sort of locking
hubs on the rear, much like the front. Every week or so he'd unlock one
wheel, so the other wheel would be propelling him so he could go around
corners. He'd switch every so often to even out the tire wear.
I always thought that was a neat idea but I don't know how it would be done
since I've never messed with locking hubs before. My TJ is the first
offroad vehicle I've owned and it doesn't have them.

4.56s with 30" tires will be pretty low. The engine will be runing very fast
at freeway speeds.
