That will do it. I just pulled a load of split firewood up the hill using the E15. Slipped a bit on the snow, but not much. Note that the E15 also has a slight cant to it's rear wheel alignment (a degree or three) due to the frame being kinda reconstructed. Oh well.

Actually, a way to lock the differential would be kind of nice; is it easy to do?
