Well, that answered that question...thanks for the link.:cool:
|
Are you sure it has a limited slip in it? I used to get both rear wheels to spin in my '80 in the dry. (Only one tire in the wet - go figure)
|
Did you roll backwards any before you did that?

Detroit Lockers are a ratcheting type diff... totally different. IN a corner, the inboard wheel gets all the power and the outboard wheel overruns, on a one-way clutch type mechanism. That's why they are kinda noisy in turns, and it's also why they are not recommended for road racing. Picture it - you accelerate out of a corner, the lightly loaded inboard wheel gets all of the torque, starts spinning, and then it catches up to the outboard wheel and the drivetrain shocks that one into spinning too. Yuck.

Originally posted by Felix Wankel Did you roll backwards any before you did that? Tell you the honest truth, I don't remember because I was more intent on not hitting our minivan which was just up the drive from that spot...interesting question...:cool: |
On a jackstand, you turn a tire, either one, and the opposite side rotates the same direction.... ~T.J. |
If they both turn the same way then it's an LSD.
