    That's what I thought! I was going to link him to some automatic lockers but I was, and am, on my phone.. Powertrax, Detroit, Eaton, and several other all have automatic lockers and they are fairly inexpensive. But also like Digiratus said, try airing down and ensuring your 4wd is working correctly. From the sounds of it, you should go up the hill in normal 4wd.

    Thanks everyone! The front end is pulling, the rear was not pulling on the right when at full suspension travel (too much resistance from what I gather). I made it up and down 4X Saturday, the hill is pretty gnarly, probably the worst offroading I'll have to worry about, so the lockers are on hold till excess money permits. I appreciate everyone's input.
