to know if its 100% a 2 way

[dil]

Seen a diff advertised on dd as a cusco 2 way.

its out of the car so can't be tested so I'm just wondering is there any absolute sure way of knowing if it is a 2 way or just 1 way???

I thought if the cups turn in the same direction it is a 2 way but is this the case??

cheers

Take off the back casing and you shouldnt see any holes in the diff like a standard 1. Should be just solid and most of them would have a make on it aswel.

Two ways have holes in the diff the same as vicous diffs but they dont have spider gears like the viscous hope this helps you a bit

if you open it up you should see this thru the hole on the diff.

2way


1.5way

cheers guys helpful info there.

the guy refuses to open the back casing for a look so he's just full of shit, probably welded

Best pics I could find of a viscous diff showing the spider gears

do you reckon a viscous would be any good?

i have one lying here just need to recase it but would it be worth the money of recasing it even??

i wouldnt bother with the viscs.ud would be better with a 2way.like you said yesterday.might as well get a proper one and be done with it and spend money on the engine ..that one sounds dodgy as fuck if he wont let you open it.

@tweek so it that was a two way the spider gears wouldnt be in the middle of the whole?
