    before anyone says it i have search and havnt found a straight answer to my question. if i missed a post that answers it please just shot me then link.

    ok so i have an 08 trd prerunner with the factory locker, is it safe to run with it engaged over the 5 mph toyota says to stay under. i understand the fishtailing danger when locked more worried about if it will damage the truck mainly the rear. trying to figure out since we got a ton of snow (for around philly) and cant miss another day of work so want to know how useable the locker is if the roads still suck.
