You are talking about when your offroad, right?

You will get some binding in your front wheels when turning on dry pavement even with everything working right.

That's because you are locked in 4 in a non slip situation...its just grabbing the surface and torquing, don't do that anymore lol

Loving that pre runner bumper! one of the best designs I've seen IMO. Only thing that would make it better would be to fill in those open ends with some sheet metal to give it more of a finished look...I would love to have that bumper on my truck! but not sure how it would look with just a level kit and 33" tires.

Most likely. Could still have a problem but that sounds about how it should be doin on the road with it locked in 4. Just keep it outta 4 unless your stuck, it should work everytime as long as you don't break something. It is a FORD afterall
