sounds easier and cheaper to just buy a Locker or Air Locker for the rear end. and while your in there maybe a bigger gear. And i haven't tried it a whole lot, but won't using the Tow/Haul help a lil.

Hmm in what trucks did they offer it? I've never heard of it before, unless it was one of the brand new trucks.

EDIT-just looked it up. For some reason I was thinking just 99-02 trucks and not 03-up. My bad for the bad info.

I think that they offered traction control even in 99....I remember reading that my year truck came with a drive by wire throttle body if equipped with traction control...
