Trails are good and sloppy(red clay)I ran a few in the Scout I just sold-havn't tried any in the rover yet.I ran some hills behind work yesterday.I read a post here recently about the "diff lock"and figured the pattern of the transfer case(have no glove box manual).Can this be right-front wheels spun,but the rear wheels did nothing?It was a steep hill(grass).I left a pattern from the front tires(both),but no marks from the rear?Hmmm........[&o]

Well,I was stationary,setting on a very steep incline.I was in gear(4 lo),the front wheels were spinning,but the rear wheels were not.Almost as if I had only front wheel drive.Could thier be an answer to this?Is thier something wrong I don't see?I made it up this hill many times with my old Scout.
