I've considering selling or trading in my Titan (for a Titan, a 6-seater LE with e-locker), but that seem like wasting money, maybe better value to get the after market lockers (any type)

The ABLS electronic limited slip differential brake is a joke.

to me all that Titan needs are traction aids: lockers, front and back.
raising it would erode handling and braking - and i hardly ever frod a river that high. stock 11.5 x33.5 rummbers are big enough tires for most off road tires. (i'm not into prooving on Rubican-type rock trails...i just want to get ty my hunting or fishing or mt. biking sites and get back to work by Monday morning.)
Agree and disagree. the ABLS is a joke if what you want to do is rock crawl with the truck or low speed difficult trails (locker helps for that). But if you drive in snow, sand or mud, it works very well. The nice thing about it is that unlike traction control, ABLS doesn't touch engine power. It just slows the slipping wheel enough to transfer power to the other wheel. You're right, it's not meant for off-road competition, it does work great in the other instances I mentioned. At least it has for me.
