STANDARD diff.

[blair]

mm yeh i tested my diff a bit yesturday
cause it felt like it was trying to spin both.
so i smashed it on teh road and on cement
sure enough 2 big black lines (4ac powahhhhhhhhhhh)...

im not complaining :D
but can anyone offer an explaination as to why its doing it??
i was under the assumption that open wheeled s-series' were ratshit one wheelers..

its not about to break is it? :P

cheers, blair.

oh p.s. it doesnt squeek/chirp when doing tight turns or anything...just feels normal til u put it under load.
kinda like a 2way baha

How good are your tyres? If they're bad there will be not enough grip, so that the torque will even itself off between the two wheels and spin both :P

I think there was a really rare S-series LSD, but I don't know the way to check it out (apart from opening it up). Or you have a different diff that is an LSD, you never know ;)

[blair]

not a grip issue.
almost new tyres on 6.5's
as much as i want to know why
im def not pulling anything apart until it brakes or changes hahaha
its probs some mud or sumshit blocking it...
had some holding my coilovers together then when i had a look and put em back together
they were feckd cause i diturbed the mud
BAHAA. safe :P

[pebbles]

jack it yup, n spin one wheel by hand n if other hand turns then...yeah..

As difs get on, they tend to spin two... my best mates ke does this. We have labelled it the "SDLSD" effect (Standard Differential Limited Slip Diff).

Dont worry, it will probably still have a heap of life left in it. Just enjoy the two wheel action lol!

[blair]

haha wikid!
yeh its been thrashed for 23years
i'd say its old enough :P

[kaibeecee]

beware, it could be that there is debris in the diff center itself. does the CW&P whine loudly, clunk or rattle under load?

in all of the S series diffs i've seen that have exhibited this behaviour, they don't last much longer.
But by all means, thrash it and have some fun.

my corona is twin dog

[Driftspec]

lol

Well there you go

I agree with you Winslow, if it works (and spins 2) don't pull it apart :lol:

Enjoy, lucky man :)

[blair]

oi.
just put it up on the jack

when u spin one wheel the other spins the other way...
im a diffn00b
so what does that mean??

i did it with no pressure then a fair amount of pressure...
it was making noises with the pressure tho...it doesnt on the road...

:D

[AmyC]

open center, Its just old.

^^^ agreed i'd say it will break soon, mine lasted about 3 days after it started doing twinies but i gave it hell , enjoy it while it lasts ;)

My 1300 and rx4, both with open centres started doing this and guess what happened *BANG*
The rx4 lasted half a rotary cruise before it destroyed itself,locked up and threw me off the road with a $200 towing bill adding the sting in the tail while the 1300 pulled twinnies for almost a month before it died as I pulled a sic skid leaving work. Funnily enough i drove with that diff for another two weeks :2thumbs: (I couldnt hear the motor or the stereo over it though)
