Message: <blockquote data-quote="6.2" data-source="post: 282512" data-attributes="member: 28">depends how much its spinning, a torsen needs some resistance to work. so if the spinning tire has absolutely zero, then it cant be multiplied and sent over to the other wheels. its like a math problem 0X3=0so what the raptors traction control system does is applies the brakes to the spinning wheel, to give it more resistance therefore giving the wheel with traction, more power to get you through whatever it is you are going through. im not positive, but i think in the rap, even if the spinning wheel has enough resistance to give the non spinning wheel power, will still apply a bit of brake to help it out. at least that's how i understand it.I have a rear torsen diff in my ranger, and i don't have traction control. so if i have one wheel up in the air, i have to apply a bit of rear brake to get the other tire to pull me through. BUT, i could be wrong. someone can correct me if thats the case</blockquote>
