drive it like its hired | Bit more info: "AP Racing. AP’s ‘Suretrac’ LSD is a relatively recent addition, mainly targeting the road user. The design uses cams and pawls. Consequently, despite AP’s claims that it’s a ‘novel’ and ‘unique’ concept, the design and ‘modus operandi’ is acutely similar to the established Jack Knight pawl-type, just a little more refined. The cams have a series of ‘lumps’ on them (1). The pawls have ‘lobes’ on each end (2), and are positioned horizontally between the cams, carried by fluted internal and external drums (3). When running in a straight line, no movement of the pawls takes place as there’s even traction on both wheels. Once a difference in traction occurs, the pawls slide in the flutes, engaging the cams. The amount of slip allowed is controlled by the frictional force developed between the drum flutes, pawl lobes and cam lumps, the resultant torque bias being applied to the axle with most traction. Pro’s - very ‘gentle’ in operation. Con’s - Comes as a sealed unit with ‘factory’ devised settings, so isn’t user tunable or serviceable. Won’t work with one wheel off ground - result, no drive. Usage - Road, drag racing, circuit racing with well-developed chassis (absolute minimal body roll, and stay off the kerbs), anywhere that won’t experience air-born wheels. Bill says - “Never seen one, but theory says similar experience to Jack Knight diff”. | ||
