Center differential


Alty94

Recommended Posts

Going to sound like a utter noob here 🤣 just purchased a maverick quantum flux plus and I love it ! But it has a central differential all my other cars have not does a center differential make it so when you hold one rear tire and spin the other rear the two front ones can stay still and not spin because on my other 4 wheel drive cars without a center differential the front wheela turn if I do that?

yeah with a centre diff you would have to turn  both rear wheels to turn the fronts thats normal Alty 🙂 the diff uploads when it needs too thicker or lighter oil will make the difference and will stop your fronts ballooning too buddy

Put your car on the floor, lift up the front and let the rear wheels roll across the surface of the floor...the fronts should start rotating too. 

 

If not check that there's a drive input to the front differential...

Bert they do but not in sync with the rear they turn slower and without much resistance there is a drive input to all differentials
