anyone running an E-locker?

Ok, have seen the ads for about a year now, but have never heard from anybody thats actually using one. Do they work well? All these questions, and no one to answer them, anyone with an E-locker, let me know how you like it.

and then do they have lifetime warranties?

I see you're running it with that 473, so it can handle a lot of torque and power then.....what do you mainly drive in, snow, mud, trail? sorry for all the questions, but like I said.....first time i've actually talked to someone with one

rocky/muddy steep trail with roots etc....lots of wheelspeed and shock-loading, along with low speed high-traction abuse, it has held up and been flawless....i couldnt tell you about the warranty....i dont remember
