lfeg Posted November 19, 2016 Share Posted November 19, 2016 Sort of like the time a co workers all wheel drive Subaru got stuck in my driveway - the city plow had just gone down the street leaving ridges of snow at the end of each driveway, and the Subaru, being fairly light, got high centered so that no wheel had any traction. Never had that problem with the Pinto wagon I was driving at the time, as it would just push through. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jpd80 Posted November 20, 2016 Share Posted November 20, 2016 (edited) The old trick with an open diff and a stiff rear suspension was to touch the brakes or pull the hand brake on a bit and create an LSD effect......That's Limited Slip Differential effect, not acid..:Rolleyes. Not surprised that the reviewer didn't know this trick, most people under 50 don't.. Edited November 20, 2016 by jpd80 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
