Here are some illustrations and explanations:

Go down the page to "functional description".
I think of the drive shaft turning the "axles" on the planetary gears.
When the planetary gear attached to one axle is stopped, the planetary

OK I'll bite, you're saying that if you put the rear axle up, the rear
wheel will spin at twice the speed?
How does that work? The magic 2 speed diff option?
The input speed into the diff is the same at 80 but the output doubles?
That's great, I am going to take one of the tires of the back and

No, the tire speed rating has to do with heat. THe tire does not
heat up spinning

putting the car on stands and winding up to 80 sounds a bit too much like
ferris Buehler s day off, but is otherwise a fine idea. I didn't follow the
bit about 80 on stands without the driveshaf
ooohh that would drive me nuts.
My truck had that sort of thing going on, new steer tires and everyhting
is good but seeing that you have had tires replaced, we can discount that.
Have you checked your wheel bearings, I suppose you would have at some
stage in 13 years.
Wheel alignment?
