Poor man's "limited slip" differential: Partial application of the parking brake when one wheel slips! Keep the lock button depressed and pull until wheel stops spinning. Modulate the amount of brake applied and with a little practice you can make it up any hill a limited slip or locking 2WD can. If it is really steep or icy, use the same technique backing up the hill--effectively front wheel drive. Works great, costs nothing. > On Mon, 19 Jul 1999, C&S Gibbs. Alaska.
