Flip-Flop Underdrive..? 444-544

posted by  someone claiming to be mariom on  Tue Jun 27 13:24 CST 2006 [RELATED]

I know that many differentials are built with a drive side and coast side to the tooth face. In other words the profile is direction specific for applying force to the system. They do work when you turn it all around but it is not recommended. I have no clue if that applies to your unit. Also if the unit you have uses a worm gear setup to get low gear ratios I don't think it will work very well as an overdrive. Worm gear systems usually don't work very well in the wrong direction.
