A hyundai i30 is a little FWD hatch about the size of a carolla?

do you mean a IX35 (AWD softroader)?

i dont think an i30 would get out of kingfisher, the hill is pretty steep, sandy, and lumpy as shit?

I run 5psi in my zook and can 2wd it without wheelspin.
Mates in cruisers/patrols run 6-8 and can do the same.

You don't " need" a locker on the beach, but on dune climbs it helps greatly with momentum.
It helps stop you digging in if you're a bit heavy on the loud pedal also.

Tell me about it, the amount of clowns that head down 3rd creek at Redhead on a Sunday with 45psi in there tires and chop the sh1t out of the entrance points need a bullet! Iv grown up in redhead my whole life and every year it gets worse! New hero's in there new hero cars going a thousand miles an hour round blind corners then blow up when they slam on the brakes and bog them selves to the shithouse!
14psi in my 33 Goodyear silent armours and a blown 5.0l gu is awsome :-)
I'm also looking into a lock right for the front! Did you say you had a second hand one Daz;-)
