Poor Little Cone Style

interesting read, but that's not a factory cone style unit...It is aftermarket, although very similar. and yes there is some very small amount of force added by the spider gears, (like I said in post #20) but nothing like a clutch style. No way the lockup torque is as great as a clutch style. And compared to the clutch style, it is NOT torque sensing. Compared to a open unit, yes, to a clutch style no. They do both have there place, no dispute there. I guess I got into this thread because of the way the title was worded, seemed like a post LOOKING for a disagreement, and I do enjoy a good argument!
