What is the advantage of Disabling the Visco if were going to run your locker? What differences will it make if it stays in or out with your locker????????

[@TorqMastersIndustries]

172kessler some customers experienced 2wd issues with their Visco lok and TORQ Locker. Basically the Visco was causing drag on one axle shaft and it would make the locker pop and make noise in 2wd - which it shouldn't. Not all customers were affected by this however. But in the chance that your Visco would act up, we recommend disabling the Visco so you don't have to do it later.

Makes Sense, Thanks

Why is it recommended to disable the viscolok when installing the torq locker?

[@TorqMastersIndustries]

If you leave the Visco in, it can cause drag on one axle shaft. This can cause the locker to act up in 2wd. Without the Visco 2wd will be just like stock. We can't guarantee proper locker operation IF you keep the Visco

Would this have any effect without installing the torq locker?

[@TorqMastersIndustries]

If you disable your Visco, and do not install a TORQ Locker, you will have an open differential like in many cars.

@@TorqMastersIndustries with no 4 wheel drive or would it just have basicly 3 wheel drive if rear diff is locked ??

Is the torque locker an auto locker?

[@TorqMastersIndustries]

Dive Bar Casanova yes it is, it's an automatic Locker and works automatically when in 4wd. In 2wd you won't know it's there.

Torq-Masters Industries thank you

[@kristofferparfa4429]

Did you install a torq locker? If so, did it make any difference to the slipping and the noise?
