I guess a compromise would be a disconnect trans or transfer case and a lockable front axle.

Does anyone have first hand experience with the lockable Lesu front axle? Is it durable and function well?

It is good trans and just to be clear it is only disconected in 2nd 3rd. 1st is the only gear that awd. One thing thouh it is best to open up the trans and take out the shift springs and relye on the servo to hold each gear as the springs are way to stiff. It take alll a high torque servo has to shift it. Unlike a tamiya 3 speed you can shift with your finger you can't do that with the RC4WD 3 speed.
