you have control-trac. When you are in auto its 2wd until the rear wheels slip then the fronts kick in. 4wd and 4wl are self explanitory

It's Auto 4wd, not AWD. AWD always has both axles, your front axle only engages when the rear slips.

You should do the "brown wire" 2wd mod. This gives you 2wh, auto, 4wh, and 4wl. You don't want to be on pavement with an autolocker with an engaged front end.

Aussie locker is not available yet. I think by the end of the month the front should be and by the end of november the rear should be.
