Best to get a ball & pin hitch for the tow bar, its safer for recovery as the rope
or recovery strap cannot slip off.

I can think of a few hundred mods I'd do before that

I use it every day for trailer work! Probably the best mod I've done. All depends how you use your car though.

sorry but thats a load of rubbish
lockrights work by being locked unless it senses a difference in rotational speed between the two halfshafts (ie going round a corner) when it unlocks with a click (or a very loud clunk if not set up correctly lol)
you don't need to do anything special with the clutch for roundabouts or corners

however on show or ice you can become a drifting god (as Hammond would say)
