Do you even know how a diff works?
To answer your question, both wheels will get power under the circumstances described.

LOL, so now a stock diff is a locker? Unbelievable....

You keep on quoting your experience with diff locks. Did you actually fit yours or did you pay someone to do it?

Hahaha, you moron. The day I pay someone to work on my truck is the day I sell it.

I love this one. Shock loads don't break axles.. I suppose this is based on your real life experience.

Sure, shock loads break axles. That is not what I said, moron. You claim that the DT's break axles by shock loading them. That is not true. A broken axle breaks the DT.

Finally an admission that any any proof of the axle breaking the diff lock does not exist. At least we are getting somewhere.

Show me a broken diff that was NOT a result of a broken axle then. I'm still waiting!

Please, prove me wrong!!

Still avoiding the question. You can offer no explanation as to why it is the side of the DT with the broken axle that breaks and not the side still producing drive.

Dude, you are making no fuck sense! Are you trying to say that the axle that breaks is the one with traction?

Go on, blow my theory out of the water. Explain to me where this energy is stored. That huge amount of energy that is sufficient to blow a DT apart. I am waiting. i am not sure who many times I have to ask for it.

The Maxi-Drive shafs have the proper design. The diameter of shafts is equal to the mean diameter of the splines. That way, the shaft is of uniform thickness through its entire length, or at least as much as is practicable given the splines, oil seal, and such. Shock loads through the shaft are distributed throughout the entire shaft and the shaft flexes uniformly for its entire length. This designs gives much more longevity than the RoverTracks design which is thick for its entire length and then steps down to a small diameter where it plugs into the diff.

This principle is easy to ilustrate. Take a chain with all but one of the links being 3/8" size. The link in the middle is a 5/16" link. Subject that chain to shock loads. The chain will, of course, break at the 5/16" link all else being equal. This is no surprise. But what is surprising is that chain will also break faster than a chain that has all 5/16" links. Why? Because that single 5/16" takes the hit to the chain while the 3/8" links don't budge. The chain with all 5/16" links distributes the repeated shock loads among all of the links.

Take a plastic ruler that is 2" thick and cut down a portion of it to 1" thick. Then twist the ruler. The ruler will snap at the 1" thick section. Then take a plastic ruler that is 1" thick for its entire length. That rule will twist a lot more and take much greater twist load than the first ruler did.

These are examples off the top of my head. I know it's hard, but think about it for a while. Many more examples will occur to you. But actually think about something before you say that beefier is better. -JL

So, with a waisted design, the engery is stored in the waised part of the shaft. As that axle twists, and ultimatly breaks, all that re-coiled energy produces SHOCK OVERLOAD! Thus, the result is a broken Detroit.

Stock axles have a waisted design, which is awesome. This is what allows the axles to twist up to 180+- degrees. What sucks is, the stock axles are made of shit material.

Finally, you finally agree that the DT is not locked when turning a corner. That took a lot to get out of you.

THE DT IS LOCKED WHEN THERE IS POWER TO THE PINION.

Another good laugh in this one. Series landrovers are "most vehicles"

Would it have been correct to say "all vehicles"? Does everyone on this fourm drive land rovers with Lt-230's?

Are Land Rovers the majority of the vehicles that fit a Detroit locker?

I'll say it again, MOST VEHICLES that fit a DT do not have a AWD t-case. In MOST VEHICLES, the is power to the pinion when makeing a turn.

You're just too stupid to understand the answers that are directly in front of you.

So what you are saying is that because you reverse with your foot on your brake, the DT unlocks. But would'nt your foot on the brake cause the pinnion to be under load. I thought you said that whenever the pinion is under load the diff is locked? Do you understand the forces being placed on the drive train when engine braking.?

Oh my God!! My sides are starting to hurt this is so fucking funny!

What puts power to the pinion, Ian? Your foot on the brake or your foot on the gas? You got a 50/50 chance here.

And here you go about engine brakeing again....

Engine Braking:
an engine brake for truck diesel engines that cuts off fuel flow and interrupts the transfer of mechanical energy to the drive mechanism.

or

the act of using the energy-requiring compression stroke of the internal combustion engine to dissipate energy and slow down a vehicle.

So, again, do you back up so fucking fast that you rely on the damn engine to brake you???? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAA! You're clueless, Ian.

I don't know what you drive, but my engine powers me backwards - it does not brake me....

When you were including "O" rings as a fault you were also including air lines, compressors, solenoids, etc, etc.

That is soooooo fucking correct, Ian.

So how many "O" rings are there in the complete system? But if we want to now stick to your restricted area of just the locking mechanism inside the diff. Have a look at this and count them. I will even help you..... 1....... 2. I know that this is a bit advanced for your maths level.

Good boy!!! You finally went and looked it up! You even posted the web site you found it on.

You can claim that you knew the answer to this, but we all know you did not. You had to look the answer up before you knew the answer.

You tried to say "1" on several occasions.That answer is not correct.That answer is not correct anywhere. Even on your air line, you have 2 O-rings; one at the pump side and 1 at the diff side. You then have 2 inside the diff; the inner and the outter. The one on the inside of the diff are the problem areas. The ones insode the diff are not a "5-minute fix".

Go into your local auto parts store and ask for a rubber "O" ring in the size that you need for your diff lock. Then fit it and see how long it lasts!!!

Humor me, Ian! Tell me what the rings are made of! I'm waiting!!

You went to a driving course that taught you to coast into and through a corner. Go ask for you money back!

Ever watching racing, Ian? Have you ever raced? Do you even know what a race car is?

Here is a video that shows a race car, in a driving school, diving into a corner. Once in the corner, you can start to drive out. Just as I said......
YouTube - Denny Aungst's in car camera at Dover Nascar School

I drive Emergency Vehicles weekly, sometimes daily, Ian. I drive these vehicles at a very high rate of speed with others in the vehicle with me. Both my safety and theirs is at risk. In other words, I know how to fucking drive, Ian. I've never had an accident in these vehicles. And, I'm tested on my skills monthly. I know how to take a corner.

You keep on trying to prove your dick is bigger. I already know that mine is and have nothing to prove.

Who is talking about dicks?

So they recommended Valvoline 90W for rock crawling and off-road work, did they? Keep on using the oil that you have then. Just don't complain about metal filings in your oil and "O" rings leaking.

Oh man, Ian. You're so fucking clueless.

Please, post something different.

That e-mail I posted had nothing to do with "rock crawling" or "off-road". It had everything to do with you not knowing what the fuck you're talking about.

Still attempting to figure out your interest in this. I know it has nothing to do with where my switches are located. But I was still going to post them last night, as it would be worth the laugh to see you shoot yourself in the foot again. But unfortunately my daughter had the memory card out of the camera as she was getting some photos printed. I might get it back tonight.

Yeah, very convient. but yes, I really want to see this. Make sure you include a picture where we can see the color of your blue paint, too. Anything else will be bogus.

Do you really want to get in that discussion? Haven't you shot yourself enough already? More than happy to discuss. Either reopen the thread you are referring to or start a new one.

Oh, yes!! I'd really like to discuss it!!

Lets talk about how you tried to say you had two lockers!!!

Let also point out where you said you've sent you "ARBs" for repair "several times", even though you claim to have never had problem in this thread!

Let also talk about where you claimed to have Maxi-Drive axles in that thread, but said HD axles are a waste in this thread.

You're an idiot , Ian.

........I'm really like the Spring thread, though. You know, the one where you state that the springs are too stiff to allow front end flex, lol.
