Works well. I have a freind that runs 38's on a Danna 44 rear and 30 front. He uses a dual hand brake set up to stop the raised wheel from spining, and tranfering the torque to the wheel on the ground. He runs all the trails in Tellico, paragon and Attica.

Your next upgrade will be an ARB for the rear then :-0

There is a guy from Canada who I saw that did it with had breaks under his seat. They seemed to work well but I think they are useless. He knows Mud Light.

Im a farmer and I thought it would work.. Thanks to all for the input.. and as for why, like an open diff on the road, like being able to lock one tire and turn VERY SHARP, and I run an ox locker in the front, but Ox isnt building one for a 9in yet!!!!
