Poor Mans Lockers
Hey Qten (and others)
Been thinking of something like this for my Subaru Brumby ute (a way to apply the brakes on individual wheels at whim to force power to the wheel on the ground, even better if I can do it electronically, with some sort of sensors/solenoids etc).
Will probably be having a go at it in some form this summer when I get some time (at least on the rear axle, which is an open diff - even more challenging as the handbrake is on the front wheels - might have to put discs on the rear and use a front wheel handbrake assembly from another suby). I have a few engineer mates and I reckon it'd be a great little project - traction control for old vehicles... geez, I could become rich if I can pull this one off!
Until then I'll just have to use the Hilux to pull it out. :-) hmm, that could be a problem until I figure out how to drive both of them at the same time!....
Cheers, Haggis.
