PARAGON has a little shameless behaviour in the past

I failed to mention something in my earlier post. Both the H2/H3 have traction control and will divert torque to the wheel with the highest resistance. While on the trail you can let this happen dynamically or in some cases use the 2 foot technique I described earlier.

I also failed to point out that many consider the H1/HMMWV to be virtually unstoppable sans it's width issues. Simply considering it's ability. And it utilizes a fully independent suspension system but the entire vehicle was designed around that drivetrain/suspension. Again, sum of the parts.

The point I guess I am trying to make is that the idea that the H3 doesn't "unlock" the swaybars might not be an issue because of the overall design of the vehicle. It might be that the engineers feel that in most situations that the traction control/rear locker will be enough to pull it through most obstacles. The truck does not have to have all 4 tires on the ground to move. All it needs is one with just enough traction and enough torque from the drivetrain.
