Hello,
I have built both LSD and manual locking diff.
Both were simple AND worked very well, BUT they are not realistic; I mean
that they do not work the way the real LSD and locking diff. work. I'm still
working on that...
One of my creations is a HEMTT truck, which incorpotates tandem axles; one
is LSD and the other is locking diff.
See http://olivierg.50megs.com/hemtt/hemtt.htm for the project.
See http://olivierg.50megs.com/hemtt/pic2.htm for a close-up pic of the
layout.
Thanks,
Olivier
