[QUOTE="d_daffron, post: 698104, member: 4983"] There are definately advantages to brakes at the Tcase like the fact that you get to use the axle gear reduction to increase braking power. I personally feel like a rear driveshaft failure on a steep climb with nothing but transfercase brakes would be really bad. The front tires arent going to do you any good to keep you from rolling backwards downhill. With wheel brakes on the rear as long as the wheels are still attached I should have plenty of brakes on a climb no matter what happens. Going downhill would suck with rear only brakes but braking driveline componets going downhill seems unlikely. Also In my case I'll be using a straight drive case so front digs are out of the question anyway. [/QUOTE]
