I have a '03 4x Ram diesel H.O. with the 4:10 anti-spin axle in the rear. Like another post said, if you get stuck, like I did the other day on ice, put it in LOW, get the trans to shift into 2nd and tap the brakes--this will cause the spinning tire to slow and conversely, the one that is not spinning to spin. This is a trick I used to do on my off-road Jeeps that had 35" tires AND open diffs. This works better with taller/meatier tires (more mass) if you let them all come to a stop, then engage them all at the same time--the torque tends to split to all four tires equally even when one is not able to spin. I had an engineer in our Jeep club tell me this defies the laws of physics---and he watched me do it! Works every time.
