Rear Diff

[Arsehle]

Looking for an education on the rear diff settings.

It’s my understanding that the rear is a Torsen when in 2h and the Mechanical locker is only available in 4H/L. When in 2H the Torsen engages when the wheel speed is 3x the opposite rear wheel

What I don’t understand is if the Torsen is mechanical sensing why Does the rear end spin only one wheel when it looses traction (always the right rear)

I cannot find a setting in which the Torsen kicks in in 2h. Tested from a standing start my truck only spins one wheel. Tc on / tc off / active track off / all available 2h modes including Baja reverted to 2h.

Has anyone found a setting combination that gave them a proper 2 wheel burnout / launch?

Thanks.


Thanks.

Raptors have an open rear diff with an E-locker. It's either fully open or fully locked. However, Gen 2 trucks cannot stay locked at high speeds like the Gen 1 trucks can.

Thanks, I thought the gen 2 had a rear worsen with an e locker

However, Gen 2 trucks cannot stay locked at high speeds like the Gen 1 trucks can.

I had the gen 1 as well, but my understanding was that in GEn 2 the rear diff mechanically locked in Baja mode 4h, wouldn't that be considered "high speed" ?

Next question would be has anyone put a torson or other mechanical LSD in the rear of a gen2?

The difference is 2WD. You can lock up the rear in 2WD in a Gen 1 and let it rip.

You are limited to like 15 MPH max in a Gen 2 in 2WD or something like that. You can't turn on "baja mode" without getting 4WD, and you aren't going to be able to do a burnout in 4WD, or huge 90 MPH powerslides in the dirt.

You can re-select 2wd after entering Baja mode and it will stay in Baja but you do loose the locker, but baja 2wd is possible.

To many modes!

I love my Gen 1 more every day

I loved mostly everything about my gen 1 until I got my gen 2

The Torsen is an option in the front diff only.

Torsen is in the front if you have 802A or selected it as a stand alone option.

Rear diff is an open diff until you engage the e-locker

Maybe Baja mode then switch to 4WA, engage differential locker and then hold button down for 7 seconds to disengage traction control and roll stability.
