Is there any different numbers on axles that have a locking diff stock? On my M35A2c on loose gravel it will spin all eight rear tires if you hold the brake and let off the clutch.
Steel Soldiers now has a few new forums, read more about it at: New Munitions Forums!
This is a tried and proven method of gaining traction. Been done for more years than most of us have been alive. It forces the differential to transfer some of the power to the unloaded wheel. This is done by way of equalizing the force between the wheels by using the brakes.using brakes on open differentials will not add traction, period.
Yep, what rick said

yep, but not for open differentials.This is a tried and proven method of gaining traction. ...
nope.Yep, what rick said
ditto to the 'nope.'
Yep, you can't cheat experience either. Think what you want and the rest of us that know it works will use it.You can't cheat physics.
and you'd be wrong in your assumption. i did lots of reading of forums and other google search results looking for answers yesterday. there were many folks asking about whether this worked or not. a resounding majority of responses were [paraphrasing] "yes, mainly on limited slips."OK, This will be my last post on this subject because I can see the mechanical engineer in you is not looking at this with an open mind. ...
first, it isn't 'theory' - it's how LS's work.... I can point out a flaw in your L/S theory, you say when you apply the brake the torque jumps up to the rear, this is not true unless you also apply more throttle. ...
