Locking rear diff

How do I get one. I watched these videos on youtube and they had a Tundra, Chevy, and Dodge doing these tug of war pulls with Ford. They would be tied bumper to bumer (the rear bumpers). Sad to say, the Ford lost every match. If you go to youtube.com and type in Tundra vs. F-150, etc. you'll see. Be prepared to feel sick to your stomach. haha. Anyways, I think it's due to the non locking rear differential. Does anyone know where to get one? Or how to beef up a stock F-150 so it can kick every other trucks ***?

those pulling matches can easily be rigged so the truck they want to win will win.
Example : tundra holds the brakes till the ford loses traction and then it begins to pull it.

also, in one of the videos....the ford begins by being pulled, but then starts to pull the tundra...but they stop the pull when that happens

Yea, you're right, you can tell if you watch really close. But I think a locking rear diff still helps.

they are all rigged.

Like they might take the F-150 vs a chevy and use a 4.2 or 4.6L f-150 instead of the 5.4L just in case, and then they will hold the brakes untill they lose traction by flooring it and then they will pull away. or simply they get the driver to let off the gas or not punch it.

Its a load of bs that they feed uneducated people so that those people will think that the truck they want to win is the better truck.
