    So the yellow wire mod is removing a particular yellow wire from a wire harness connector on NON OR models that enables traction control to work in 4LO.

    Poor mans locker is engaging parking break 1/2 way or so when lsd equipped in a off camber situation. Only one wheel will spin but the resistance from the brake will engage the lsd and get ya moving.

    Synthetic is safer, just as strong, lighter & doesn’t get the split strands that tear up your fairlead & hands. Downside = more expensive.
    I run the smitty 9.5k w/ synthetic

    I think so. If you’ve ever messed with a worn steel cable, you’d agree. The steel cable can also kink. Bad unless you’re into that kinky stuff.

    I think it's worth it, plus you can repair the synthetic line on the trail

    You can always put a blanket or heavy canvas on it and attach a weighted bag over it. That way if it snaps it absorbs the recoil.
