    any1 ever had problems with the auto-lsd locking up while breaking from 40mph to about 30-35mph to make a right or left turn? basically it felt like the rear end engaged and the truck started to push. i noticed that after turning of the auto-lsd the problem was corrected but i was just wondering if this was normal?

    just got back from the deal and they told me that even with resting the vsc the it wont change anything, then they go on to tell me its not the lift its the offset of the wheels that is causing the retard in the system.
