HELP with one way diff

[Rick]

I have just got a second hand TC3 with spares. I was told it had a one way diff.

However when I stripped it all down I cannot remember which of the four diffs were fitted to the car. How can I tell which is the one way?

As my son is not the most experienced, and will be running a new car I dont think he will be able to tell when driving.

its big and blue and the output ends just pull out.
he'll tell, when he breaks the car may just swap ends :o

or it may just be fitted into the rear and well....... i think he'll be able to tell then, and i'm sure you'll know about it after the race if it is fitted into the rear.

[Rick]

Any more info anybody.

Still cannot tell which one it is

HELP PLEASE

If you hav 3 normal diffs and 1 way and you cant tell the diffence then you havnt got a 1way. The centre will be blue and as s2 says the outputs will pull straight out. The diff ring is screwed on also.

Thankyou Phil C.

I have obviously been conned

Never mind, it was not a major selling point, and did not intend to use it.

[Phil C]

Oh well if your a beginner i wudnt suggest a 1way anyway as they make the car difficult to drive and things are broken more easliy. Mainly driveshafts ::)

With the one way you should be able to turn the main gear. It's not necessarily anodised blue. I have an early one which is just silver. You also do run them indoors sometimes to pull the front in.
