I recently bought a 2012 Brute Force. It has some aftermarket goodies like a Muzzy muffler and fuel controller. When I was looking at the machine before I bought it I noticed the front diff locking lever was removed and the cable attachment to the diff was disconnected. When I asked the previous owner (second owner) he said the original owner installed a differential lock. I have not heard of such a thing but the price was right so I took a chance and bought the machine. I am presently tearing it down to do a full inspection. Because I suspect a locked up diff and a BS story I plan to remove the diff and have a look inside. My question is whether anyone has heard of an aftermarket device that you would install to purposely lock the diff permanently, or was he blowing smoke?
I appreciate any insight
