    Quick question guys.
    I have A-Trac and rear locker.
    Since I'm putting in 4.88 rem. Should I throw in a front ARB locker? Or is A-TRAC and rear locker good enough?

    I love my A-Trac. When I regear, I'm planning on keeping mine.
    Just my 2 cents.

    What do you mean keeping yours? Why would anyone consider eliminating a trac?

    Take this advice with a grain of salt because I have no lockers, but I personally am not going to lock my front when the time comes. I personally don’t do anything that serious to warrant it

    IMHO, A-Trac is better because it lets you steer and it only works below 5 mph.
    Front locker seems more durable, but you're almost always forcing one wheel to spin.

    Where can I read about this A Trac? Is there a thread for all the different buttons in my 2009 off-road? I want to better understand what they are, what they do, and when to use them.

    Well that settles that. No front locker. I used ATRAC the other day at AOAA and man u could tell a difference. Thanks guys. Saved me 1,000.00.
    So I'm gonna still get the dual ARB compressor. Now I may invest in a ham radio for the truck.

    I've tried about every combo I could at Rausch over the years.
    Start with 4-lo.
    If you get stuck, or believe that it will need more that 4-lo, hit the diff lock.
    If you get stuck with the diff-lock on, hit the A-Trac.
    If you get stuck with the Diff-Lock and A-Trac on, back up and pick a different line.
    If you have tried three different lines, and danced with the skinny pedal, and you're still stuck, break out the winch.
    I have needed the winch once for myself.
    Now that I have jinxed myself, I will need to test my winch to appease the gods, or I will need it very soon and it will not work.
    :cheers:

    That’s not how it works, you don’t have an “a trac” diff, you have brake accuated traction control. If you install a locker, you still have a trac.
