good luck in patenting that system. I have two words for you.
PRIOR ART.
WRC cars have been running a system that is exactly the same for 20+ years. Used for the exact same reason of kicking the rear out. BUt no locking mechanism as that is not a very bright or safe thing to do (you and your partner have been warned as that is a lawsuit waiting to happen).
Longer handle or better leverage arm and nw a days, they do not even have that as it is all EMS controlled!
i think the new one would have no way of locking itself. is this what you meant?
