lock center diff? URGENT
i have a question i want to settle before tomorrow's bashing...
i have an ofna ultra lx-1 buggy that has a center diff, as well as 4wd drivetrain (no duh). the engine is a massive 4.6cc that produces up to around 3 horsepower. i want wheelies, for awesome video. before this i had a monster truck, that had a solid driveshaft. what are the pro-s con-s of locking my center diff? can i get wheelies? and btw i ONLY use it for bashing

RE: lock center diff? URGENT
locking the center diff is they only way you will get wheelies from you buggy. whether or not it will work depends on your engine more than anything after the diff is locked. if you have enough power with a locked center diff you will get wheelies. you just don't see many people doing this to their buggys as it could adversly affect the handling. but if you are just bashing you will probably be fine. send us some vids when you are done. seeing a buggy on its back wheels could be cool!!

the engine is a massive 4.6cc that produces up to around 3 horsepower.

And yes, a spool will make wheelies easier. However, a long(ish) bugyy that's low to the ground will probably not wheelie very easy.

RE: lock center diff? URGENT
just tried to lock it for hours... tried almost everything not permanent. then... i felt so stupid. theres a screw and all you have to do is tighten it......... and running it i broke a pullstart. fixed it, using a old one i have. but it doesnt really pull wheelies.
