the problem with the brakes is every time you hit one it take feet of the
out come. and if you start to head off in a way you dont want, it makes it
harder to redirect it. been there tried that, not going back.

the other way is a limited slipp, not a diff lock or a unit like that.
all it takes i a little rock, soft spot, or even a change in the kinda soil
there. then its OVER
