So we got some rain yesterday and this morning I went to the neighborhood mud pits to do some research. I left the truck in 2wd and under light throttle I slowly came to a stop and was stuck with both back wheels spinning. Both back wheels were spinning slowly at about 2K rpm, however I noticed that under more power the right wheel seemed to speed up while the left wheel was still turning slowly (I think). My truck is a '95 SR5 with a stock rear. So does this make sense to yall? I thought power would only go to one wheel or the other with an open diff, whichever had the least traction. Dave
