it all just depends on what you are going to do with it
if you are going to just do some general bashing I would not lock them.
if you are going to do nothing but crawl then I would lock them
I dont like the way they handle with both locked

Either way I would lock the rear. I may have some metal out drives if you need them. Not sure just yet, I'll let you know.

i found that my rig handles good with the rears locked but not the fronts, at higher speeds. if the front is locked thats when you get handeling problems in corners as you want the diff to unload in a corner, the same theory as a stadium truck handles.but for low speeds and bookoo tourque lock them bad boys up
