Yes, I'm familiar with the air-locked Rockwell as used on the M35A3s. In my dreams I'd have a set of lockers and another pair of dually chains and then I could drive in some serious snow. But the lockers would cost more than the whole truck, so I think I'll stick to trying to find some more chains reasonable. Have you looked into making a locker kit of some kind that can be retrofitted without pulling the axle? It could even be manually mechanically actuated like Memphis Equipment's "REB" lock-up kit for the transfer case. Maybe it could be actuated via a cable that would run through the axle tube out to the hub along side the axle shaft. But none of this is Dodge so I'll shut up now.
