How is it when you are the one "casting the bait" that they are the ones
trolling?

Clearly Snoboy is flustered.

In snoboy speak that translates to: "Cleraly Snoboy si flustured."

I live with the physics involved, and they are not what you think they are.

I drive a CJ5 with a front locker, AND I leave the front hubs locked nearly
100% of the time. None of the issues you cite are real issues in the grand
scheme of things. Yes, I'm certain that the front end might behave
differently if the locker was not there, but it does not behave badly in any
situation where it matters. It is a bit noisey and clunky in a parking lot,
but it is easy to adjust my behavior so the vehicle remains calm and
comfortable. I'm sure the front end would behave differently if I bothered
to unlock the hubs too. But, my CJ with the hubs locked is exactly the same
as a TJ all of the time, and there are lots of TJs with a front locker. My
only point is, my life and your physics don't seem to mesh. I'll go with my
life, and hope you adopt new physics that are supported by reality.

You have absdolutely no clue what I do and do not know. None. You apparently
think it is not normal, and therefore is a problem.

I told you that torque steer is not a problem. It is not a problem. I
certainly notice it, but it is not a problem from either a mechanical
standpoint or a control standpoint. Torque steer is of no consequence. Ever.
Loss of turning radius can be a problem, but my transmission allows me to
change directions and try again. I'm okay with this, and the added traction
is well worth the effort to turn twice.

I did not say one word about a solid axle, but I agree that a locker is as
close as you can get without actually having one.
