Your ability to stop wheel hop. Thats what fails. Seriously, they don't break under even moderate power and track abuse. Wheel hop with slicks and 350 hp break them. Sustained track use with excessive temps from underbody mods kills them.

The failure point for torsens is giving them to Aidan. He breaks them at the strip with measly 1.6 powah.

220hp+UHP tires+prepped track+wheel hop=byby torsen

Not true. There are some special hardened thrust washers that can wear out. It just leads to increased gear lash, but not ultimate failure.

Thus began my quest to eliminate wheel hop. First stop, the bushing mega thread...
