How Torsen Differentials Work

How do Torsen limited slip differentials work? The Torsen differential is a very unique type of LSD, which was invented by Vernon Gleasman in the 1950's. It allows for a ratio of torque split between the drive wheels, and it allows for differing speeds of the drive shafts, much like a typical LSD. It does so in a highly unique fashion.

  1. Surely it is, especially the two-seater cars, they aren't like that for no reason, right? But, no matter what, I'd still go to a van or a six-seater car cause it has a lot of utility space on it.
