Well if you get lucky and yours doesnt pop in 2wd like about 50% do, then the above applies maybe. But in 2wd if it pops even for a moment, the ESC goes crazy and trys to antilock the brake to correct what it thinks is a skid, and then the locker over reacts and they fight each other. I have had to remove 2 out of the 3 I have installed in to JK front ends in the 12 - newer. All I can recommend is that you do a worn out used insert, or a cheapy one like a aussie or that other what lokka? In hopes it doesnt lock very well due to new cut or precision cut teeth. If you cant spend $900 on a $25K jeep...
