I started out with a 2wd I know a lot of people would be surprised where they will go, but up here on rough trails it's so much easier driving in "3wd".

 

Thanks, Great Canadian: I Was Just Making A Simple Statement And Then Every Body Started Talking About Lockers etc. I Know What A Locker Is And How They Work "DA" But They Was Missing The Simple Point !

I Ain't Got Nuffing Against HONDA , My Knowledge Of 4-Wheelers Was Offended And That Pissed Me Off !

 

No prob dravy...happens alot here....someone tries to make a point and if someone doesn't like it, the s&%t hits the fan...people don't like the fact that you were right on this one.

 

I have seen it work three times, twice on our Rancher and once on our Rubicon. Each time got stuck, one front wheel in the air and spinning. Stopped, and started again and away I went.

Have been very happy with the front differentials in these two ATVs. I don't believe they are "limited slips" without getting into a big discussion on them. They are "gear" engauged. Get a Honda service manual and look at a exploded view and you can see how they work. I believe getting the power to the wheel that spins is done by either stopping or applying the brakes.

Good luck on the law suit.

 

Their several types of limited slip diffs, wet clutch types which is the cheapest to make like used on most yamahas & kawasakis. You're right they are all metal parts. Look in your service manual or owners manual and find somewhere where you have to stop or hit the brakes to get the diff to work. GO FIGURE !!!!!!

 

They are all called limited slip,speed or torque sensative.

 

So whats your point?????

 

Whats the use !

 

if your diff. is anything less than a locker or spool, there are parts that will wear. this means that over time, you will have less & less traction.

 

oh yea, anything less than a locker or spool is not true 4x4!!!!!!!!! don't care what it's called or who manufactures it! one tire will eventually slip! sooner not later!
