Unless this causes me to have some kind of instant increase to on-power cornering, I'm not interested.

I... dunno.

It doesn't seem like it will solve anything for me.

I want a solid drive train, full time 4wd, with diffs. So far I can only have 2 diffs, lol.

All I see is another point of failure.... Whether you're slipping at the front of the belt or the back makes no difference. The only 'benefit' is that if you want the front really loose, you can do so without loosening the rear as well....though everyone I know is trying to get MORE power to the front, and no matter what your front slipper is set to, you'll still slip at the original slipper plate.

Good job for thinking outside the box...A for effort.... C for implementation....

Next thing you know, we're going to see someone come out with an inner clutch basket....you know, because there is SO much room to move the spur farther out on the shaft...

Maybe V2 of the diff will be what I am looking for but what I have been doing is cutting front slipper pads to reduce off power braking to the front but I am also reducing on power bite. With the V2 front slipper is basically an adjustable front "clicker". Locks up on power and reduces front brakes off power for better tight cornering.

its a slipper clutch for the front gearbox independant of the rear slipper assembly. It will allow you to have brake bias.....

Using just what you have, throw an HD on the inside and put two standard pads in the basket.

I think the front slipper is interesting, but it's nothing I'm interested in. It IMO, is just another thing to break/worry about (I'm part of the glued clicker club) and the last thing I want is the rear free rolling more than the front on this truck.

I'll save that for my nitro cars.
