OMG you're a genious! Welcome to 1985. |
Re: Crazy assed idea: Full Time Active AWD
OMG, getting an active AWD system to stand up to a twincharged V8 is harder thenmy dick when you're moms around!
:6 lol! |
Re: Crazy assed idea: Full Time Active AWD
Just put a locker or limited slip for the center diff. Problem solved. Brake based traction control will never work effectively for your application. A hydraulic system would work way better for loading. Like attaching a through shaft hydraulic pump to both sides of the center diff and control the loading with two valves. This is how some active diffs work. Transferring energy around through fluid and pressure. |
Re: Crazy assed idea: Full Time Active AWD
Can't do that. The center diff isnt your standard differential... Id like to replace it with a torsen, but, Im not sure how you'd do it, it would be a completely custom unit.
http://www.coloradok5.com/milemarker/74mm5.jpg see, the drive shaft from the trans drives that splined hub in the center. That drives the 4 spiders and outer ring, and then the side gear you cans ee drives the front, and the one you cant see drives the rear, so, neither end of the truck is actually 100% coupled to the engine at any point in time. It can swap drive front to rear all it wants. I dont see why braking wouldnt work.... Is it as efficient as a torsen, definately not. However, as far as bang for my buck, Its pretty dang good. |
Re: Crazy assed idea: Full Time Active AWD
just get a spool machined for it or get an adapter machined to replace the diff gears

Re: Crazy assed idea: Full Time Active AWD
you guys are missing the point.
I have a 205 in it... arguably the toughest T case ever built and put in a pickup. I want the 203 for the full time 4x4. If I put a spool in it, I loose the full time 4x4.... |
