  2. Locking hubs - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Locking_hubs

    Also, in some axle designs (such as those used on older Land Rovers), the top swivel bearing can become starved for lubrication (which is normally supplied by oil slung up by the rotating axle), unless the hubs are locked every few hundred miles. Also, since locking hubs generally do not require a key to operate, they can be maliciously locked ...

  3. Locking differential - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Locking_differential

    A locking differential is a mechanical component, commonly used in vehicles, designed to overcome the chief limitation of a standard open differential by essentially "locking" both wheels on an axle together as if on a common shaft. This forces both wheels to turn in unison, regardless of the traction (or lack thereof) available to either wheel ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sudden_unintended_acceleration

    Stuck throttle (unrelated to pedal position) [12] [13] Shorting of tin whiskers [14] [15] Diesel engine runaway: Diesel engine power is governed by the amount of fuel supplied. Excessive pressure in the crankcase can force mist of engine oil into the intake manifold, which can be burned in the same fashion as Diesel fuel, thus causing runaway.

    Subaru XV Symmetrical AWD logo. The Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive (also known as Symmetrical AWD or SAWD) is a full-time four-wheel drive system developed by the Japanese automobile manufacturer Subaru. The system consists of a longitudinally mounted boxer engine coupled to a symmetrical drivetrain with equal length half-axles.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portal_axle

    Comparison between normal and portal axles Pinzgauer portal axle. A portal axle (or portal gear lift) is an off-road vehicle suspension and drive technology where the axle tube or the half-shaft is offset from – usually above – the center of the wheel hub and where driving power is transferred to each wheel via a simple gearbox, built onto each hub. [1]

  7. Limited-slip differential - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limited-slip_differential

    In this work it is called Trq f for torque friction [9]). Trq d is the difference in torque delivered to the left and right wheel. The magnitude of Trq d comes from the slip-limiting mechanism in the differential and may be a function of input torque (as in the case of a gear differential), or the difference in the output speeds (as in the case ...

  8. Twist-beam rear suspension - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twist-beam_rear_suspension

    The twist-beam rear suspension (also torsion-beam axle, deformable torsion beam, or compound crank) is a type of automobile suspension based on a large H- or C-shaped member. The front of the H attaches to the body via rubber bushings , and the rear of the H carries each stub-axle assembly, on each side of the car.

  9. Viscous coupling unit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viscous_coupling_unit

    It linked the front and rear differentials for quiet and smooth transfer of power to the axle with the greatest traction, on wet or dry pavement. [ 4 ] Viscous couplings are used as the center differential in cars such as the Toyota Celica GT-Four , and also as a limited slip differential (LSD) in rear axles.
