it does looks like it could work
very interesting but i spose it would be for vehicles that suffer from this problem alot
i wounder how long the bronze bush would last if you were pushing it hard almost all the time
so there for the crown wheel would be pushing against this bush more often
just thinking it may be more hassle that it worth for full competition
and the little bits of the bush that wear could they end up in bearings and cause the bearings to have a shorter life

"Why do the British drink their beer at room temperature? Because Lucas builds their refrigerators."
don't some zooks already have this idea, on the back diff at least?
I thought vit diffs had them.
My rear lj diff has a similar looking device, to stop crown wheel flex. Not sure why sierras did not?
I could be misinterpretting the subject, too

I would not think that it would wear quickly .. Its an oiled (as the crown wheel would have oil on it) bronze bush running against a smooth surface ... similar bronze thrust washers last many 100's of 1000s of kilometers in a gearbox. They have a slightly dimpled surface to allow them to trap some oil so they stay lubricated under loadrunnin4life wrote:it does looks like it could work

I would think that the bit of realitively soft bronze would have a pretty negilgable affect on bearing life as long as you follow proper procedures and change you diff oil on a regular basis.
