    Your arb air locker is completely independent of any systems on the truck so you can turn it on whenever you want. What I generally do is just turn it on at the beginning of a wheeling trip and just leave it on the entire time rather than try and remember to turn it on and off. I enjoy locking the rear in 2wd if I want to get a little rowdy on a fire road and want to "drift" around corners because it's easier to break traction and slide the ass around.
