Yes, I'm sure it will but this wasn't my car and the owner invited me to try
driving it this way (I had given him a copy of an article by L.J.K. Setright
that was published in the UK's Car magazine in which he extolled the virtues
of driving with the diffs locked ... my friend wanted me to try it and I was
more than happy to oblige him!).
