Outer Limits 4x4 Board

What's your thoughts

front

normally it slides directly sideways, both over and understeering, but my dads old 200tdi defender used to hang the rear out on roundabouts. None of this lost traction is from excess power though.

Wait till you piss the oiler off

Hmmm, todays downpour at the lights. Normally just 1 front, but today.... 2 fronts.

When the disco has the CDL unlocked, an 1.1T front and 1.2T rear set of axle weights and including weight transfer.... those rears won't be breaking any traction from a set of lights, especially as rear torque is limited by front traction.

It only ever seems to break traction going straight in the wet. Otherwise its front (inside???) when pulling out onto busy roads in a hurry (Not intentional those ones).

Usually the front, but I don't spin wheels that often (not with those Silverstones on anyway ).

I'm not trying to turn this into a competition but I can spin both front wheels from a standing start at a set of traffic lights dry 36" simex tyres I dont know why people bag these motors they're light weight which is perfect for my defender and with custom tuning It has plenty of get up and go!

CDL un locked front right then rear left all dependant on road camber

CDL locked front right and rear left at same time which sorta drifts sideways
