So, Rick? How did it go? I wouldn't think a front locker would help very much, given that your front tires aren't touching the ground on the way up the stairs...:D :D ;)

actually on the stairs the front locker does more work than the back, I ran it a few years back with arb's and front only give the biggest advantage

Thats what Adam installed. works like i wanted. Thanks Adam
7am waited till 7:07 and 2 sets of 2 pinkies showed up. There was a counter across the road. First i'v seen of this.
never went past the flats. no more pinkies till i got to the "Y @7:55
Got a call from my ceiling installer, he needs my help laying a job out.
The job is @ tao fellowship on bill gray rd. the back of their ranch backs up to POWER LINE. WORKS SUCKS. Looks like i'm in heaven getting paid to test my new set up. 89A @ 65mph then a few shelves.
life is good

If they come in at 7, they won't be to the stairs until 8:35. The counter has been there for over 3 years now--glad to see your powers of observation finally kicked in :D .
The last time I went up the stairs was with a near-stock Rubicon, using rear-locker only, and I am not even sure it needed that. Of course, it was good conditions that day, no mud or debris like yesterday. If you don't hug the boulder on the driver's side, your passenger wheel comes WAY up--that time for a change of shorts feeling! :D I am a chicken, though--haven't even tried it with open diffs. :rolleyes:

How hard is that run? I am getting tired of the normal Sedona stuff, looking for new things. I have been quite a jeep wuss lately....
