Review of Bomb's Visco Lok Differential

ruapache · #11 12-22-2005, 03:44 PM

I dont want to start an argument or anything but has anyone found out a way to have a true 4wheel drive locker. I know the Visco Lok is good for most of the time, but I am looking for when I want to lock all four wheels to pull and not let go if I let up on the throtle or brake some. Just figured someone would find a way to do it.

i dont see why they couldnt add a button so that you could hold the front in lock mode?so when you do get into those situations where its locked then you back off throttle you would still have true 4x4.

The 4x4 on all outlanders uses an acuator motor and small diameter pin to engage 4x4. When you select 4x4 on your switch, the solinoid takes power from the battery and sends it to the act. motor. YOU DO NOT want to switch from 2x4 to 4x4 on the go, at a slow speed or anything but a complete stop! If you do this repeately, then you will sheer off the pin that engages 4x4 and be without 4x4 till you take the machine to a dealer ( act. motor costs about $684.00 CAN BTW!

I haven't done anything on the 800's except for on our demo, the oil leak and clearing up the speedo issues ( learning how the speedo works ). But I did do four pins/sliders on previous outty 400HO's. The owners kids were always switching from 2x4 to 4x4 on the go and eventually sheered the sliders off. Easy to fix, cheap part, big pain if your in the bush though.
