I sure wish you could just lock the diffs when you need to. The two features I'd love to see on every quad are the ability to lock the diff and shift into low range on the fly,

Some have diff locks.

Best way to go

I think this may be the way to go .. no having to stop to engage it . Just pin it and go ... less to go wrong .
While the diff lock was nice on my wildcat , constantly having to stop to lock it in sucked ...
To fair though , I come off of Polaris machines , so it was never an issue to stop to engage ..

The Polaris system is good / if only the diffs were stronger ....

But the visco lock sucks / great at speed and most things . But in the slow off camber tough going / it flat does not work .
This new locker could be the ultimate unit , know soon ...
Early results are real good I hear .

I only need to lock mine in right before the nasty stuff. Otherwise through 90% of the mud holes I am just in 4wd. In other words like a can am through 90% lol. The other 10% it gets locked in and away we go. A good locker helps when off the wheels come off the ground. Electric sway bar disconnect is in the works next. I am going to take mine out for the next couple rides to try it out. With the new shocks I can adjust slow compression to compensate. Should be interesting.

I liked my brute force front diff. Lots of guys don't but it worked nice. The ability to lock it just enough to give you the traction you need was nice.

I agree , long as the cable was adjusted... could engage on the fly

Mine has the Halo locker. Works well . You certainly need something with the Can-ams, the visco junk sucks.

so we have a exclusive dealer here in canada now. MUD N WHEELS in Sask is taking pre orders. Have a read of this......

Every so often a product comes along that changes everything. this is one of those product launches! This product is for every can-Am owner that has fought the screaming ,chattering and slipping death cry made by your tired old visco lock. What makes the TORQUE LOCKER so great is that you can use it in your stock diff even if your visco is burnt out.
PROS
The torque locker takes only a 1/4 revolution to lock up solid.
It will ratchet to aid in steering in low load applications.
Once locked up it's 100% locked with no slip.
In 2wd it acts like an open diff.
Comes with an unprecedented 4 year warranty with no hp or tire size limits
Very affordable pricing.
CONS
Well we can't really think of any.
This Product is a real game changer. We are so happy to be your authorized dealer!
we are now taking pre- orders with an expected shipping date of June 28th 2017.
If you would like to pre -order your TORQUE LOCKER please send us an email or phone call 306 361 0455

so had a set in my little grubby hands this weekend at CCMR Canadian Championship Mud Racing at Battenfelders atv grounds... Sunday, today was drag racing.
Jarett from Mud N Wheels had a set there t look at... they look like such a simple design but yet well made and so easy to intall also. I do not know when he is getting stock or how much but if you want i can ask him.
