Why? Never been anywhere that my standard (non active rear diff) D3 hasn't managed to go where an active rear has..

the locking rear diff will go places with less effort and wear and tear than the non locking version.
but, without it you will still get places , just with more effortDuncan

I don’t know if it holds something in place or if it’s just a stop point.
