 An excellent idea.I'd love to have diff lockers but it's normally
 a very expensive exercise,but certainly do-able.
 For those of you that remember Eric (EMZ) he has some info on this
 on his website where he's apparantly done it to a 2WD van.
 Not sure of the address now but it's something like...
 www.mytreeway.com/EMZ   He posted it once when he was still
 talking to us so I checked it out.I was curious to peek thru
 a window into the world of EMZ after all his interesting posts
 over the years...;)
