In low traction conditions, it will be fine.

I always get a kick of how many people theorize what it is like to drive a locked truck in the snow/ice.. it is not that bad. Truly.. It just takes a slight alteration in your driving style.
amen my man.

personal experience for me is when the rear is locked....hell if you are good no need for four drive even in several inches of snow.

My only advise to the po is if you are running 38's and locked up front get some longfields
