I haven't noticed any milege improvements, would've been nice and I'm supprised I didn't (although I did do a gear change and air lockers at the same time). The main reason I went with them is I know there is a lot less wear and tear going on now and can be worked/bearings greased on when needed. If you know your going to need 4x4, just lock'm and leav'm till your done or out of the area your in.

its prob a head thing. it takes less effort to turn thus making it quicker. sorry, i didnt mean to imply that it changed the radius of the turn.
