Most of us didn't say not to get it but this is more of a case of having turf tires and trying to drive in the soft ground. The diff lock is pretty much useless. Put R1s on the tractor now the diff lock might be useful but you probably won't need it. Last spring My neighbor could not get his tractor in 4wd with turfs up a hill in the woods behind our houses. i climbed the hill in 2wd without the diff lock. Then pulled him out with a chain. I used 4 wd to unstick him not sure if i needed 4wd but i had it so i used it
Exactly, we are saying do the stuff (the tires) that will do the most good for the least amount of money. But my experience with 2wd vehicle and LS differential is they are a "little different" on ice and snow, and not a big help, or at least not a big as a tire upgrade would be. Dont forget the Blizzak tires or the studs are going to help with stopping the vehicle also on these slippery surfaces.. and the LS differential is not going to help one little bit there.
