    Never saw it. Would be great if he was a member here.

    In all honesty, that shouldn't blow a rear differential. But, if you're gonna abuse your truck, better accept the consequences...

    That's part of driving around a field, shouldn't break anything.

    I fail to see any "abuse" here, I see Toyota commercials where trucks are being driven way harder than this, I beat on my 1993 XJ with a stock rear diff and it's still going strong and thats a 25 year old vehicle. My expectations are a lot higher with my 3rd gen.

    Isn't that how most people drive? What's wrong with what he was doing? I'd be pretty upset if that blew up the diff

    It should hold up with that sort of "abuse" though.

    No traction, traction, no traction etc... at high RPMs is never a good thing for a diff.

    I was going to say the same thing, the 3rd Gen TV commercial shows more so called abuse.

    E-locker junk, sure the warranty may cover it, but if you become a repeat offender they may not, and if they do can you afford to be without a truck each repair.

    :crapstorm:

    Edit: sorry I'm just a hater, debating on jumping on this arb sale.

    The fine print. Bottom of the commercial says do not attempt.
