This isnt to lock the front. its to provide more grip to the front. the slipper setup is subpar for 4x4 and leaves you with one slipper pad per drive. which equates to alot of slip. the 2wd trucks have more grip with using 2 pads for one drive. so by pinning it you use both pads together which equal an identical percentage of slip applied to each drive. and with added clutch basket you can then control the amount of slip with improved grip. the basket is a must in my eyes.
