I was thinking that a typical eaton style e-locker for a differential vs the IWE system. Granted on old vehicles you would get out and run around to the four corners and twist the little spinny thing in the hub to "lock" your wheels.   I see the IWE being the vacum powered version of that. Which again i think is absolutely ******* stupid to do that vs an electromagnetic solution (its not that hard or expensive to weather proof wire for the love of god, the actually electromagnets might be a bit more expensive then some ****** plastic but i would wager they are going to be stronger)I see an elocker setup being the mechanism that locks/unlocks at the center diff to transfer torque to the wheels. (when disengaged the axles and everything still spin obviously)Feel free to point out what ever im missing</blockquote>
