I'm definitely not wrong lol. Like I said it's a matter of cost however. It would take easily $25k on an IFS truck of your choice, to accomplish what a few grand and some 40s on an old rubicon can do. That is mainly because of strength and durability of the components. More moving parts, and far more complicated, which necessitates stronger more expensive materials and more severe changes to the donor vehicles chassis.you can disagree, but for hard core rock crawling you would be wrong. The SFA is better.
I 100% guarantee you, a built IFS suspension like that will do literally anything a solid axle can do. Is it worth the cost? That's debatable, and subjective for that matter. For that 1% of "real rock crawlers" it makes more sense to use a solid axle, I wouldn't argue that, and for 99.99% of off-road vehicles, you'd be right, but you'd be mistaken saying it is better 100% of the time.
Ok so my saying "magical things" was just me being lazy and not wanting to type it all out. Yes, it does change more. In short, in addition to the lockers and sway bar, it changes the throttle response, the shift points, the steering feel, and the brake calibration in dealing with wheel spin and torque vectoring (I.e. it disables or changes some aspects of the traction control to do that).And the goat mode doesn’t do magic things with traction control, it locks the axles which will disable traction control.
