	also you may have a limited slip differential. That would make it try to go straight ahead when turning. keep it though, just use it. old john "Bret Chase" <nunya@business.net> wrote in message news:1ovn719ec4pktc5sop274ra9s8nk5j3kka@4ax.com...> On Fri, 06 May 2005 18:42:57 -0400, "mudslinger" <teresawin3@aol.com>> wrote:> is it normal for my truck to be hard to turn in four wheel drive. which> >:\|ever way i try to turn the steeering wheel wants to pull the other way.> >:\|also how fast do u have to be going when u let off the accelerater to take> >:\|it out of four wheel drive. auto locking hubs of course> umm year and model of truck? the answer you seek is dependant on that> info.> yes, it is normal to be more difficult to turn in 4wd.> -Bret

	If you turn your wheels slightly in one direction, your tires will track paths of two large circles, one inside the other -- even though both tires are angled equally in the same direction, they are tracking different diameter circles. The inner tire will be trying to go less into the turn, that is, straighter but this reaction is not noticeable. If you turn your wheels fully in one direction, your tires will track paths of two smaller circles, one still inside the other. The inner tire will be working harder to go less into the turn and this reaction is more noticeable (inner tire shuddering, skipping, squealing, etc. more than the outer tire) because of the smaller turning circles tracked. It is even more evident in 4x4 mode.

It's only for low traction surfaces, where the tires can slip a little... otherwise, you can damage your transfer case by using 4wd with no wheel slip.... YMMV mac Please remove splinters before emailing

	This is not true. The inner tire is angles more then the outer tire. This is called the Ackerman Affect http://www.rctek.com/handling/ackerman_steering_principle.html "Franko" <franko@worldnet.att.net> wrote in message news:xrVee.187353$cg1.39079@bgtnsc04-news.ops.worldnet.att.net...> If you turn your wheels slightly in one direction, your tires will track> paths of two large circles, one inside the other -- even though both tires> are angled equally in the same direction, they are tracking different> diameter circles.
