The differential supplies equal amounts of torque to both driven wheels. If one wheel loses traction(in an open diff such as your tractor is more likely to have) then the amount of torque provided to the other wheel will be the same amount as to the wheel losing traction

You are absolutely correct, Spyder2. An open differential does indeed apply equal torque to both output shafts. Power at each wheel can be different because the rotational speed of each shaft can be different for a number of reasons, but the torque applied to each axle will be the same. My earlier comment re. differential torque distribution was in error.

Anybody notice that the original poster has totally disappeared?

that's not good, but if you notice, not uncommon either... sad, really... soap opera takes over, what can we do to fix?

Orginal poster, aparker, did you get any insite to the problem from here ? I hope so.. what else can be done to help? Have you checked the usuals which have been poster here? Let us know, maybe more help on the way !

Atfer the first page it was not about a steering problem any more now was it.Ever one had to get on with the bashing .after Travis R was told one time he was wrong then that should have been it.Then you all should have help with the 2610d steering problem.all of you that posted on the next two pages was bashing I don't care who you are. AND THAT JUNK is not right.

And neither is posting misinformation. Once, twice perhaps, and I would agree with you to let it go. He has made a career of it. So you have a right to your opinion, and I to mine. Interesting that you criticize those who were critical of Travis tossing in the misinformation and calling another poster wrong (who was quite correct), but did not see fit to call him to any accountability.

And arthr31, consider that the original poster at one point got insight that was absolutely inaccurate. Assuming little personal knowledge to start with (the reason some people ask questions here) how much damage does the misinformation do? The "soap opera" you reference at least did not provide the poster with misinformation about his problem. Maybe he just decided that since he was getting conflicting information it was of little use.

You had told him he was wrong .There was no need for me are any one to get on the bandwagon . Travis is a young Kid .let it go.

LMTC, you've made your point, again. I was just trying to encourage the original poster to bring us back on track and begin a productive discussion once again.

So, aparker, have you troubleshot the issue any further?

**Edit**
I want to thank folks like LMTC for pointing out when there is blatently wrong information being written here. Like has been said, for the inexperienced, the wrong information is worse than no information. The real experience ppl here are the check-and-balances that we all should be listening to. Thanks...
