I would not use lockers for tire humping or rti ramps. I have personally seen rigs come completely off the ramp, and come all the way on the hoods of rigs using lockers. just use 4lo and go slow. Oh and there tire size has to be relevant to yours. I can't climb a 35 with ruby tires easily.

I climbed up right side of his truck and he's turn to left

Him turning opposite direction of side I climb up gives me more tire to walk up.

If you do it toward the vehicle instead of beside then him turning the tires to side your on give you more tire to climb.

If he has no fenders like jeep in moe jk's picture than just drive up the tire if its far enough out

I think the whole tire climbing thing looks cool. But sometimes there are things that I like to watch I am not confident enough to do myself.

And I would be afraid to climb a tire up on someones rig if it had fenders, as it might not have a fender anymore before I was done.
