2way pulling when acclerating - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

I know it might be stupid question to ask but i put in my kaaz 2way and since has been pulling mainly to the right. replaced w.e. needed replacing,got alignment and still pulling. I did read unmatched tires sizes ex(245/45 and 245/40,etc,etc) will making the car pull to 1 side or driving retarded. But in my case both tires are the same size but i notices that since i had a open diff 1 side is more wear down(still has some threads left but has reached its wear indicators). The other side the tire is in near mint(I replaced for a long trip a while back). I switched around the tires and now its pulling the opposite direction from before

? Anybody had this happen to them even with welded diff

Again it just a question but i guess shows to prove that sensitive a locking diff is?

I google before posting

yep, seen it plenty of times. Doesnt take much difference to cause this. Soon as you change your tyres it'll be all good.

Seems like you figured out your own problem. Yes, the same thing will happen with a 2 way. A 2 way acts like a welded diff under hard acceleration because, well, it's locked. The tire that is smallest in diameter will spin faster, causing you to pull to that side.
