Comparing Limited Slip Differentials, Helical Gear vs Plate Diffs
Limited slip differentials(LSDs) are a crucial component of modern cars, particularly in high-performance models. They improve traction and handling, especially in situations where one wheel may be slipping or losing traction. LSDs come in two main types: helical gear and plate differentials. In this article, we will explore the differences between these two types and […]
Clutch-type Limited Slip Differential Explained
The problem with open differentials is that they send power to the wheel with less friction, which causes the wheel to slip. This isn’t good when the car travels across surfaces such as ice. To solve this, we need a slightly different design that limits the slip of the wheel with less friction. This is […]
