rubicon trail

would it be possible for a torsen fx4 to complete the rubicon trail with some trail help, other vehicle/s with a winch. is the torsen differential as good as a rear locker? is the front locker neccary on this trail? i believe the stock rubicon were able to make through the trail. i would think that a slightly modified fx4 with torson diff would make it through with a little help now and then. the biggest difference i see is the lack of a front live axle and front locker. is this the difference between success and failure at the rubicon?

Since you can't unlock the hubs on the FX4, a front locker would be ill advised.
