air locker ?

[decavo]

this weekend i was using the air locker on the front .. I had turned off the air compresser and left the locker switch engaged .. dont know how that happened .. while traveling dirt road very slow i hit the comp switch saw the locker light on ...will it hurt anything engageing them while rolling .. I dont plan on making a habit of this .. I like to stop before i engage anything to do with 4x4 or the lockers etc ..
p.s. i wheeled hard enough broke out the tail light lens and scratched the mess out of it deep to .. lockers are good it will pull you into the s*** and back out again ..

thanks for the advice

No you are fine. You just can't engage them when your tires are spinning/slipping from low traction situation.

I don't think you could really hurt it at slow speed. Either it engages or it won't engage. If the splines aren't lined up they aren't lined up. Now if you were doing it at a high rate of speed in a spot with great traction I suppose you could screw something up.

glad to hear i did not foul up anything it still engaged later in the day .. turning it hard produces a bit of clicking on a hard surface { shale to a big rocks } they pulled me over some fun stuff so i dont want them hurt ..The rest of the day i left the comp on and just used locker switch ..
