Been driving it in the snow now and I notice every time I get home there's only snow build up behind the drivers side tire, NEVER behind the pass side. So today it was raining and I did a couple little burnouts from stop signs and it's ALWAYS the driver side spinning. I took a tight right turn and made it spin [which should ALWAYS engage the pass side] yet the drivers side was the one spinning. It is NEVER getting power. I'm not hearing any clicking like a bad axle would. What could be the culprit and what should I check out? |

I thought I'd add to the tomfoolery with a simple statement.
I like ponies. |

I like ponies. ^ uncalled for QUOTE I still don't think this is settled...I'm 100% sure the pass side should spin on occassion...Otherwise I'll just have a bald driver side tire. when your going straight. both wheels have the same amount of torque applied which means both wheels are locked in the cage. when youre turning the pinions in the cage start to turn. the inside tire spins slower while the outside spins faster. You make a right turn, the left tire will rotate more due to it having a further distance to travel and the right side less do to the shorter travel distance. either wheel will spin when the other has exceeded the threshold of traction available, it all depends on the conditions, such as how heavy the vehicle is, how much drag, how much friction there is, gradient of the road, the vehicle's momentum , weather and what ever else. your diff seems to be working fine /thread This post has been edited by SeverX13: Jan 20, 2011 - 1:13 AM --------------------  QUOTE ‹Superaison› i'm a computer inclined guy.. ‹Superaison› or girl. idk what gender I am anymore. ‹SeverX13› *facepalm* QUOTE suprakid: o sh!t suprakid: i wanna get an obama chia pet SeverX13: hahahahaha |
