4wd systems... part 2

[larichard at plguide.com]

Thanks Henry ! Very nice summary of the different systems, that guy  
has a good knowledge of all the differences.

Now, what I need, is a summary of the diff counts and type on each  
system. As an example, Honda's Pilot and Ridgeline only has one front  
differential, no center and no rear ! Instead, Honda uses one clutch  
to send power to the center driveshaft, then 2 more clutches for each  
rear wheel.

Thanks anyway,

Louis-Alain
