RE: Torsen Tech & tank-slappers

[glen powell <gpowell@acacianet.com>]

I only lock in the sno/rain/ice and never at speed with ABS. Never got a tank slapper (yet).
Is the tank-slapper phenomenon only an issue with a Torsen center diff? Not pushing the
envelope hard enough? (exercising reasonable judgment?)

the key is centre diff unlocked....

locked centre and it doesn't happen.
