Default diff?

I notice if i go around a corner and punch it the car go sidways as normal, but going the other was only 1 tire will spin, does that mean my diff is getting weak.

Sounds like the clutch's are worn out in the trak-lok,i would'nt really worry about it unless you want to do a full rebuild,you can get the trak-lok rebuild kits pretty cheap...

While you are in the rear diff. takin **** apart rebuilding that trac loc, what gears do you have? If you don't have them already get some 3.73s or 4.10s. And yes your trac loc clutches are worn.

its perfectly normal to make a left bend and go side ways
its perfectly normal to make a right bend and only spin right wheel


right wheel is the primary drive wheel. so its going ot spin alot more then the left. now when you got right bend its spinning alot faster then the left one thats why you get one wheel

left wheel when making left turn is trying to turn faster then the right but right wheel is the primary so they spin at same time. resulting in going sideways

it will take alot to blow it up.
are you running c-4 explosives or some nitroglycerine instead of 80-90 gear oil.
