Just for the record, there is no such thing as "single wheel drive" in a
vehicle like that. A open diff can only do one thing and that is send
the same amount of torque to BOTH wheels, no more, no less. A LSD, Posi
or locker can send more torque to one wheel than other one. To have one
wheel drive you would have to have a axle with a locker and a broken
axle on one side and then you would have 1WD. BTW, replacement lockers
actually are part time 1WD's in turns under limited power as they
"coast" outside wheel in a turn and drive inside one.
