  • @mariusesss If, by having one wheel off the ground, the traction difference exceeds the bias ratio [it does], that wheel will spin.

    In such a situation, hopefully brake actuated traction control will help you out. Or if this axle has a parking brake, pull it partially.

  • what will happen if one of the wheels lift off the ground? Will the diff still work(the grounded wheel get 100%), or will the lifted wheel spin(get 100%)?

  • so basically this differential delivers power to the wheel that has the MOST traction?

  • @pogoboy123 Honda's sh-AWD is a front wheel drive PTO system. Instead of one clutch & rear differential, Honda decided to not include a rear differential, and use two clutches, one for each rear wheel.

    Honda's system allows for 3 wheel drive. The idea is to not drive the inner rear wheel, in order to generate a torque upon the chassis, and increase rear outer slip angle, to aid in increasing yaw, and yaw rate.

  • isn't this a thorsen type of gear set

  • So is this how Acura's SH-AWD works?

  • Brake Traction Control + Helical (geared) LSD = Maximum Traction Solution with true auto-locking diff

    I have the setup in my Explorer and I really love it

    front end: 27 spline, Standard Rotation, Dana 30

    Rear End:

    31 spline Standard Rotation Ford 8.8

  • @garciaarmando12 this is a geared LSD, not really the same as the locker you might be thinking of. While OK for offroading, a true locker would be better.

  • is this locker puting in a front differential and is it worth buying for hardcore off roading how about if your going up a hill or in the mud and turning the front wheels would it still have a both tires spining at the same time ???
