Re: Left Foot braking??
The biggest advantage (IMO) that I don't think anyone mentioned yet, is that LFB forces or at least transfers some torque away from an opposite spinning wheel, with the diff(s) unlocked. There are situations like a steep turning uphill trail or a really narrow trail with a steep drop-off on one side where you don't want to lock your diff(s) and lose steering capability. In these instances, LFB is kind of like a more smooth and less noisey A-Trac (like one poster did mention).
What's the factory stall in the AT, around 1500? I assume this is just to get the torque convertor loaded and running at full torque multiplication, correct?
WOW I always thought that LFB was something for the racing world !!
I have tried this technique but I need more time to get it right!! I am glad to hear I have al least been using it correctly. Not well yet , but correctly!!

So should I be doing this even if I have a TRD rig with a rear locker and A-Trac?
IMO it's a good technique for anyone to learn and appreciate, but your A-trac will do a decent job of it on its own.

Don't know, but I did manage to stall mine going up Wipeout Hill on the Seven Mile Rim trail in Moab last week. Was too busy focusing on the obstacle to see or worry about what rpm it stalled at though.

Ya I figured it was really hard to do, but DominicG doesn't seem to have a problem with it... hes stalled his Auto more then I've stalled my MT.
