In Vermont last Friday we had a good snowstorm of wet snow.  I decided to t=
ry out my 5000's rear diff lock in an empty parking lot, with full snow cov=
erage.  Suddenly, first gear, 15mph pendulum turns became readily available=
, in fact driving the car in a straight line was nearly impossible.  I have=
 not been able to make the car quite so tail happy since and I am thinking =
that perhaps the vacuum line has become disconnected at the diff, as it has=
 before.

Just my .02...
