You shouldnt have any problems with the differential on your car, as it does not
have the Torsen system (unless it is modified). You could be able to notice the
forces that take place if you lock the center diff and make a u-turn on asphalt
or gravel. What you shoudl or could experience is that two of the tires are
actually slipping, as they are of different size. When you drive with the diff
unlocked, it works just as a 2wd car.
