Differential parts link


I believe he is talking about installing them between item #18 and #19

I have added multiple shims (#19) to lock them in the past, there is also another way.

The pennies will not come out once the center section is bolted together ( the ends that are not numbered on the parts picture that house the limited slip assembly, the pennies will stay inside )

There is another way to do it without adding any shims. The teeth parts that slip (assembly 17 is individual teeth) are installed in a certain order to make the assembly slip. kind of in a step type pattern. If you take this assembly apart and do not step the teeth when reinstalling, alternate them instead, it will lock the front end solid.
If you have a service manual (Honda) it shows the propper pattern install them. Alternate them instead to lock the front diffy.

By the way, once this is done it will steer harder than heck

Just for the record, I did not tell you how to do this.... hehehe

you can also hit your front brakes and this will make your fronts spin together, for free.

 

I may give the 6 cent locker a try........ but I'm a little short on cash right now.

 

seems like a lot of work... have both my diffs locked in my toyota pick up... and sometimes its really frustating trying to turn... even if the tires are turned all the way the truck doesn't turn because the outside wheel isn't allowed to travel faster than the inside wheel... i think it would take away from my riding experience as whole... no matter how much it improved my performance in a mud hole...

 

For those who know how to do this, Do you need to disassemble the differential to add the pennies?

 

Those of you who have locked your front diff whether by aftermarket, using pennies, or any other ways. ... can you still switch from 2wd to 4wd if you had that option originally or does it become fully 4wd..?
Just curious bc i dont want to lose the option of 2wd because its just fun!!!

 

the way you spelled it, at first I thought you were doing something immoral to your Honda !!! and with 6 of them, no less !!!

 

The reason most ATV have 3 options, 2wd,3wd(4x4) and true 4x4 AWD diff lock is that in AWD the ATV is almost unsteerable and only used in slow low traction conditions.

Full time diff lock would not be much fun.

 

Boy, no kidding. I think my arms would fall off after just a few hours of riding.

 

It is really simple and unbelieveable how this is done! I couldnt believe it either. The pennies stay in place and are exactly the right size to keep the washer from flexxing which makes the clutches stay in the locked position
