Re: Fulltime 50/50 split
If you did this mod, and then disconnected three of your sparkplugs, you could turn your SVX into a Justy.

Re: Fulltime 50/50 split
Just curious, if this were done, is there any reason not to leave it in 50/50 all the time?

Re: Fulltime 50/50 split
Seems like it may be very usefull if you were stuck in the snow, but that's about all I can see a use for.

Re: Fulltime 50/50 split
We have a beach you can drive on here, wouldn't this "switch on" mod work for soft sand as well, maybe even our crazy rains sometimes?
I like the idea of being in full control, and I mite just do this mod, only because you can switch it on/off as needed However, any insight from the good ole techs around here? Of Course having it on all the time would wear the tranny down, and your tires... but being switchable... any foreseeable problems?

If your trans is working properly, its 50/50 any way.

Re: Fulltime 50/50 split
I would be very interested in this, but I don't plan on having the slushbox in my car much longer.

Besides the wear and tear on components, your gas mileage will drop significantly as well...
