randrm,
I had one on a couple of years back when they were new. I found it to be annoying. I do not off road. Bought it to keep the rear locked in snow and when accelerating.
The problem with it is when you take off when turning, the inside wheel is disengaged. Since there is no weight on that wheel it will then slip/lock, then disengage, and then slip/lock. Often got a ratcheting effect.
I took it off and installed an Eaton LS. It works ok but if I had it to do over again, I would go with one of the Worm style LS with a manual locking feature.
