Anyways, yeah with the A8q I figured of it was a "no problem" thing I'd consider it, but if there was even a slight doubt I wouldn't try. This thing sucks to push!

Cody, tow it with a tractor or ATV.  BTDT w/ the 90q in my garage.  I know the A8 is heavier but you should be able to hook a tow strap to the tow eye and drag it. 


Huw, max power allocation through the TorSen is depenpendent upon the gearbox it's attached to.  Slushbox is 75/25. Manual is either 80/20 if I recall...

But regardless, if one wheel has "ZERO" resistance it's useless.
