Your not going to get any "lockup" with open differentials so I dont really know what you are talking about.
All 4wd hi/lo does is transfers power to all 4 wheels instead of just the rear-two.
If you have LSD then you might get "some" traction but it is not going to equate to "lockup".

Rode with a buddy in his '09 yesterday. Tried a short steep snowy/muddy incline. It didn't make it but all four were spinning. The Brake Lock Differential worked as it should.

i have LSD.. and in just 2wd the back will hook up no matter what.. but when i go into 4wd the back wont hook up at all.. and yes.. lockers are in the future.. atleast in the rear.. because from riding four wheelers since i was 5 i know that even if only your rear end is locked you will go more places than someone with a LSD..

If there is enough load on a lsd differential it will spin one wheel. It can only do so much since it is a limited slip. You are fighting the traction control in 2wd and 4-hi as well, unless you manually turned it completely off (not by hitting the button once either)

the esp is usually enought to keep all 4 spinning. even in low it should still be working. the thing is it's not immediate. you have to let the wheels spin in order for it to work...
video evidence. this was open/open with no LSD (PS, check out the date hehehehe, that's why i was being such a baby, it was like 3 weeks old and at the time there weren't many others out, so it's not like there was an abundance of spare parts available. hell, i made the lift that is on it)
