emotor creates force, activate 'diff lock', solenoid holds pressure.   Like a 
Piper airplane line lock.  The good thing about it is that it can  also be 
on-off, IOW ABS still available.

My understanding is that the torque supported is really high as long as the  
heat isn't as well.  Like really really high Keith.  Hapersize+  high
