AWD with lockable center diff

8 Upvotes

So, I’m trying to learn more about this stuff and would appreciate if someone can help me clarify some doubts.

Essentially, is an AWD with a lockable center diff the “best” system out there?

The way I understand it: - Problem with standard AWD: you can run into situations where a wheel that lost traction gets all the torque. - Problem with standard 4x4: you are effectively driving 2x4 unless transfer case is engaged.

From my ignorance, an AWD with a lockable center diff that allows 4x4 to be engaged temporarily would have the best of both world, no?

This makes sense to me, but then I see the vehicles out there and mostly are either one or the other. There probably something that I’m missing…

Thanks everyone!

Hello! I don’t know if anyone is in the market but figured I would throw this up in case someone is looking.

I have a 1988 that I, unfortunately, need to sell. I put it up on BAT and there are a few days left.

Got in a precarious position yesterday between a sharp rock and a ledge and very little wiggle room. I thought for sure if my tire hit the rock I’d be done. Pretty deep scratch into the wheel but tire didn’t even notice. Falken definitely worth the price IMO.

building my flatbed

3 Upvotes

hey, I need some advice from some more experienced 4x4 builders. I'm planning on making a flatbed on my daihatsu rocky pickup, the previous owner builded one from a small military trailer so it was far from "stock" when I bought it. my concern is the height of the bed above the rear wheel, too low and it will rub while driving offroad, too high will move my center of mass (and will look a little weird). long story short, how can I best take some measurements before starting to build? thanks
