hi man, i know you dont get much views or likes but you have no idea how much help you're giving to future engineers like me, wish you success, god bless
From what ive come to understand, torsens seem like a great choice in performance applications, but in certain turning situations, it can cause a rwd car (that would usually oversteer) to understeer because of where the force is being applied
Torsen really works best on FWD and AWD cars. On FWD it helps with understeer and heavily counteracts torque steer- that feeling in FWD cars when under hard acceleration the car tries to rip the steering wheel out your hands. On AWD cars it's often used on all three differentials to send bulk of the torque to one wheel that has the most traction near instantly and without the need for complex electronics. It's a really effective, simple, relatively inexpensive and low maintanance option for LSD. It doesn't need special oil additives and doesn't ware down like the clutch based LSD. It is 100% mechanical so there are no sensors that can break like on torque vectoring differential, etc. All you need to do is change oil regularly like you would any other differential so the gears don't grind themselves to death. It isn't perfect- if one wheel has no traction (is in the air or on very slippery ice) it completely stops working, which is why TVD exist.
reinforcing what others are saying below, differentials are fascinating, If you want to make an hour-long explanation you can depend on me watching every moment. You might want to throw in something on tracked vehicles (or maybe a separate video). You make me wish I had gone into engineering :)
I design automotive training programs, and if it were my decision, the students would watch all your videos and we would have a few classes that are specific to the maker/model. Excellent job guys, 5/5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Gotta go with the Torsen. Simple yet extremely durable. My 2020 4Runner Limited has a Torsen center differential controlling the AWD System, and I almost never have to lock it into 4-wheel drive as the Torsen does a seemless job.
What engineers create to address problems with automobiles are amazing. I had no idea how important differentials are in helping a moving automobile move down over a terrain (well-built high speed expressway or off-road terrain).
Sure, I know that. But I meant the ratio and the reaction between front/rear. If one of front wheel slips, the torque immediately goes to rear (of course with better traction), so two wheels is rotating with ratio up to 70:30 (front left and rear right, or vice versa, left side, or right side depends on the situation)
@@kyal1068what he's refering to are manual front hub locks, which enable/disable the connection between the halfshaft and hub. This disconnects the front differential from the hubs individually, but combined with selecting 2wd completely disconnects the front drivetrain from the transfercase and wheels, increasing longevity & fuel economy. You have pneumaticly controlled, electronically controlled, and mechanical/automatically controlled lockers and If I had to take a guess it probably has a mechanical locker.
@@-aid4084 ya, manual locking front hubs* with a transfer case to engage or disengage the front LSD i think i did get that mixed up before, for the record, i got 2 Ferozas now
Very interesting video with significant and useful information included. Excellent explanations and illustrations. Many thanks. I think that the Torsen differential is the most interesting solution (no clutch, no slipping). It is also the most expensive with a relatively complex technology and can be found only within high end and expensive cars.
Tremenda inteligencia en este tema. Realmente impresionante, y lo digo por q no conozco del tema, pero reconozco su complejidad, es interesante.

I got the Torsen differential out of a firebird and put it in my S10. Mine's a 4.3L 5speed and that thing...I've gotten stuck on wet grass before when I had the stock open differential in it. It drives really good with the Torsen in there. GM should have offered it from the factory.
@@sthomp731 I have the last generation of the firebirds a 2002 and I don't think it comes with a torsen differential but the limited slip differential (LSD) I know because I fixed a leak replacing the gasket and it looks more like the one I just mentioned;
@@chrisdrake3238 1999 to 2002 Camaro/Firebirds that say Y87 on the vin sticker on the driver's door will have a Torsen. Some of the V6 3.8L could have a Torsen also. If you can't find one,Hawks motorsports had some used ones for about $250.+ shipping.
I believe that Thorsen differential is better then ,,open" diff. in a cheap small car. From what I understand ,Thorsen diff. in a 4x2 traction car, do not spin a suspended in air wheel (with no point of contact with the ground) while the other wheel which is on the ground (have 100% grip on the ground), stay (and not spin at all).
That's true. The use of worm gear-worm wheel combination means that if one driven wheel encounters zero friction condition and "wants" to spin all the available torque away, it cannot because the worm gear can't drive the worm wheel, so the driveshaft that has traction (the one on the asphalt!) controls the rotation rate of BOTH worm gears, thus transmitting all the torque to the entire driven axle. Frankly, it's genius! Works on snow, ice, mud and round Druids Hill bend at Brands!
to The Engineers Post person, in case you didn't know, that locking diffs will grind when taking sharp turns, my dad's Suzuki Samurai would grind when taking sharp turns in say, a parking lot building it was either the diffs or cause it was a solid straight axle
Thank you for a very informative video. Well done. I prefer the LockRight automatic differential locker. Its way more cost effective than any other on the market. The LockRight automatic locker locks when both wheels travels at the same speed, but unlocks itself automatically when cornering. LockRight is a simple design and an ‘install and forget’ diff-locker. I know from expert gay it works very well in an automatic transmission, I’m not that sure on how it works in a manual transmission. A more advanced design is the automatic locker from Kaiser in Brazil. I have ordered one for the rear axle of my 2022 Jimny. Will order a second one for the front in Dec. -But why a locker you may ask, as the Jimny has a electronic “locker” called AllGrip Pro. Meaning the computer in the car applies brakes on the spinning wheel transferring torque to the non-spinning wheel. The AllGrip is good but reacts too slow. Sometimes the computer needs 5 full turns of a spinning wheel before applying brakes to it. Meaning, when brakes finally are added the car has lost most, if not all, momentum. With one or two lockers installed the off-roading should be way more controlled at slower speeds.
I had an automatic locker in the rear axle of my Jimny. It's the best option for offroad use on a budget. But on road it didn't make me happy - especially in tight corners. For that reason I changed the automatic locker for a Quaife ATB and also put one in the front axle. Sure, it's more expensive but it's the better option for off- AND on road use. It's way easier to control the Jimny with the helical/worm gear LSD's now. With the rear diff locker the Jimny was oversteering when the locker engaged and it made the already underpowered Jimny more weak. AND: I can't say that the automatic locker is 'install and forget in a Jimny with manual transmission. It clicks in every corner when not engaged i.e. not locking and it clunks at every change from accelerate to decelerate. That clunk doesn't occur when you have automatic transmission, because the propeller shaft is under load.
After a bit Of research, i ve found the king, the do it all diff. Cant rember then gen, but the rear diff of jeep rubicon is an airlocker combined with a torsen. It doesnt get better than that.
@@loukasantoniou8054 No offense but that’s very wrong. A Jeep rubicon has front and rear electric lockers and when unlocked they are just open diffs. I personally have ARB air lockers in my jeep which work the same either locked or open but activate faster and are more reliable.
@@legotechnicworkshop3932 there was a jeep rubicon that had a better diff still. It had a torsen type 1 i thing which has a high trb ratio, with an air lock, so you had both. That would be the best diff to have as you get both. And by both i mean, bettet cornering traction on pavememt, decent traction off road and when shit gets badz you can activate the locker. However i dont know which company makes these diffs and i doupt they make it for any other vehicle. I also believe that the gen1 and gen2 cayenne had a similar diff but instead of an atb diff they use a clutch type torque vectoring diff, with and electronically controlled lock ring. But clutch type lsds while very effective when fresh, they worn out pretty fast and need a lot 9f expensive maintance to keep peeforming well. Especially the ones with high kock percentage. In addition they are noisy and make slow speed manuverabullity difficult. Thats why i prefer the one the rubicon. Taking all that into consideration, a wavetrack diff is still one of the best diffs for on road and offroad performance, that you can actually fit on your vehicle and have no mentance requirements. Its not noisy and doesnt affect your everyday driving. However if you dont care about improving on road handling and you just want a dedicated offroader then yes any type of true locker is the way to go. Thats the long answer that i was bored to write lol.

@@Dude_Ness It really isn't. SPOOLS are a type of differential. Welding a diff is basically turning an Open diff into a Spool, so welded diffs are poor man's spools.
Every video from these guys, the grammar on screen is correct but for the AI voice is wrong? How? Also Torsen diffs get their own detailed section but LSD just glazes over mechanical, viscous, and clutch? Of course here I am watching...
To be honest, this video is not nearly as good as it could be. Mentioning specifics about certain diffs that don't matter and leaving out parts that do. Good example: welded diffs. You said how the heat from welding can make the parts weaker and more prone to failure. Could have definitely mentioned that it's the spider gears that are welded together, so it acts like a locking diff, and really put an emphasis on tire wear and driveability concerns, on top of it being something that you really do *not* want to do on a vehicle you drive around a lot. You really ought to compare the different differentials a lot. It will help people who are learning for the first time.
@@eieio6641 He's correct though. This video spent like 3 minutes saying "differential lets wheels spin independently" over and over again in different ways. It also said a differential sends equal torque to both wheels, and a few minutes later it says an open differential can't do it. And what the hell is the purpose of even including a welded diff? It's not a type of a differential, it's a welded differential. It's like saying a crashed car is a type of car.
Nice video, but be careful about specific wording. An open diff is a constant torque device, changing wheel speed to enforce equal torque for both tires. No traction on one side means no torque will be applied to the other. A locked diff is a constant speed device, changing wheel torque to enforce equal speed. No traction on one side means all possible torque will be applied to the other. Possibility of overloading factory design is possible, but in low traction situations it's unlikely since max diverting torque is limited by traction.
If it's done right a Lincoln Lock is as good as a spool use plate preheat and weld with 7018 or MIG. Limited slip is no better than an open diff weight on either wheel and your stuck.
I have had FWD and RWD cars fitted with Torsen differentials. In my experience you don't know they are there except for big improvements in traction. Maintenance free, light and small size fitting inside an open diff casing. Ideal.

Nice video, but be careful about specific wording. An open diff is a constant torque device, changing wheel speed to enforce equal torque for both tires. No traction on one side means no torque will be applied to the other.
A locked diff is a constant speed device, changing wheel torque to enforce equal speed. No traction on one side means all possible torque will be applied to the other. Possibility of overloading factory design is possible, but in low traction situations it's unlikely since max diverting torque is limited by traction.
6:18 If one Veal🥩🐏
9:25 4-Veal Drive 🥩🐏
i think Torsen with TBR closer to 1 is the best option
If it's done right a Lincoln Lock is as good as a spool use plate preheat and weld with 7018 or MIG.
Limited slip is no better than an open diff weight on either wheel and your stuck.
