It's not a hard core off road traction devise,like anything factory except the good old No-Spin which is a Detroit Locker. I compare it like this...if you put a limb in a chipper,then start it and go to rev it,it'll stall. If you have it running and revving,then put a limb in it turns it to chips. You just have to know how to use the equipment and use it that way. The Gov-loc isn't good for drag racing or rock climbing but is better than an open diff when extra traction is needed. The one in my suburban has kept me from getting out and locking the hubs more times than I can count.

Wow, thanks for the insight. Could the no-spin be found in the 12 bolt or in the Dana products?
