    It's def different. I can't turn any corner without chirping tires. If I start turning then get on the gas, it locks up and wants to pull the truck a diff way. When shifting while driving straight it occasionally does this as well. I get random loud pops every now and then, assuming its from it locking or unlocking. It if very easy to drift. Before I would have to double clutch to get it sideways but now I just gotta turn into a corner a lil hard and I can get sideways. Of coarse this isnt on dry pavement. When its wet, all these things seem to increase. Especially taking off from a stop and turning. Give it some gas and I'm instantly spinning tires. Personally I don't mind any of this. I like the drifting aspect of it. Lol but all the diff driving characteristics just need to be gotten used to and then the driving turns into normal again.

    Haha yeah well its only stupid if you put other people's lives in danger. ;) and as far as being sideways goes ........ It's SOOOOOOOO easy to control. With an open diff its very unstable. Like coming around a corner, as soon as I would start to slide it would be fine. The problem wouldnt occur until trying to straighten out and the weight transfer back the other way. The swapping of power from one wheel to the next combined with the weight transfer is a bitch to try and smoothly control. With the locker I can get sideways at a controllable rate, maintain a drift, and come out of it at a very easy, smooth controlled rate. Like butter son!!! Haha

    As long as you don't tow a lot or plan on drag racing anyone you pull up next to then you won't be disappointed
