How a Differential Works | Types of Differentials Explained

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 <3

Locking diffs and locking hubs for off road use, man what good times!! I remember jumping out of the truck to lock the hubs!

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.

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 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

This was insanely helpful, thank you very much. Please keep making videos like these.

Thank you , great explanations and practical demonstrations. I learned a few things here today, steller !

Cool. Would like to see more details and animations of torque vectoring diff

Excellent video, I've watched 5 or 6 videos before this one, this one goes very straight to the point and i love that

Thank you, I always found differentials hard to understand but you explained every compenent and its function very simply and informativley

this channel is a hidden gem

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 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.

Tremenda inteligencia en este tema. Realmente impresionante, y lo digo por q no conozco del tema, pero reconozco su complejidad, es interesante. Y me encantan estos vídeos por q muestran cómo funcionan los componentes de los vehículos los pro y contras y te da el conocimiento necesario para entender tú propio vehículo y si te gusta el tema de la mecánica, poder usar este conocimiento para diagnosticar cualquier problema q se presente. Realmente genial! Gracias😁👍, ah! Hablando de cuáles me gustan más, pues el diferencial de los 4wd por supuesto. Pero para cada terreno y necesidad hay uno, y dependiendo de ello pues así es q se adquiere un vehículo ☺️

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.

Enjoying all the way from South Africa. That very informative stuff

I have a torque vectoring diff in my current vehicle and it's pretty rocking when taking fast turns!

Wow this came down my timeline on youtube and how i o so needed this!!👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 wondering why my car sounded like that?

thanks! i took so many notes for future reference .

Man you're great and you helped me during my test and I passed thanks and I have recommended this channel to my friends

Excellent video Well explained only with what’s important without over doing
