They only chirp if you make them chirp, easy on the throttle and it stays unlocked.
I'm totally sure if I had enough momentum and didn't bottom out too much I could totally get up that hill with my 1 wheel drive open differential. That would be fun to watch too!!!

Powertrax claims the No-Slip is smoother than the Lock-Right, in the real world, it's worse. If I had to do it over again I would have just gotten the Lock-Right.
