So we know it's impossible to keep all the tires the exact same diameter unless you rotate daily. So would it be safer on the transfer clutches to have the larger diameter tires on the front or the back?

I would guess the back because if the front tires are rotating faster than the rears the TCU may interpret this as wheel spin and start trying to use the transfer clutches to compensate. I don't think the TCU can compensate if the rear tires are rotating faster than the fronts other than to give them less power at which point it's already at 10% or less.

Comments?
