characteriscs than before; you must take greater care during

driving.

2. Second—by geng you farther up a hill before your

vehicle stops; geng back down can be more dicult than be-

fore.

3. Third—by breaking an axle sha. This way is more

subtle but is potenally more dangerous. We will carefully ana-

lyze this situaon for you. This analysis also holds true for many

other types of tracon-adding dierenals, including clutch-pack

limited slip units.

a) Applying Power. Because the LOCK-RIGHT can apply

twice as much of the available engine torque (100%) to either

axle sha when compared with the standard dierenal (50%),

you must be more careful than before when geng your vehicle

out of a rough situaon. To avoid breakage, therefore, be sure to

apply power smoothly and avoid jerking.

b) Breaking. An axle sha generally will break

when it is under a lot of power. When this happens, the wheel

on the opposite side will sll be powered because of the

torque-transferring capability of the dierenal—and the vehi-

cle will tend to turn quickly toward the side on which the break

occured. When a front axle sha breaks, the remaining powered

wheel will also try to turn around the steering knuckle because

its pulling is then no longer balanced through the e bar by the

pulling of the other wheel. Suddenly having only one front wheel

powered can jerk the steering wheel right out of your hands;

therefore, remember! Any tracon-adding dierenal will give

your vehicle more capability but also must be used with more

care than a standard dierenal.

Full-oang Axles. If the broken axle sha is a

full-oang type (many fronts and some rears) and the vehi-

cle connues to be driven, aer about ve minutes of opera-

on check the temperature of the aected axle housing by feel

and connue to do so occasionally. This precauon is because
