Fun in the rain

[Thelt]

AWD plus LSD plus new tires equals the ability to launch as hard as you want on a wet slippery road...... Lots of fun.

Its probably no different than on dry pavement, so where is the fun factor??????

Being able to merge into traffic that you would normally have to wait all day on to clear is fun in my book.

Sweet . . . .I maybe doing the same at some point, and I have AWD V8 with 3.55's (Class II). Which LSD did you go with? Is your gearing 3.55's or do you have the 3.73's?
Do you have a V8? How is the Snow (if you guys ever get any?) takeoffs?
What I have noticed with mine, in heavy snow I CAN break the rear end free if I really get into the throttle. I also want to switch to 3.73's for towing, and maybe at the same time add LSD or TruTrack (TT) thus the questions?
Thanks for any input
Jim.

My LSD is factory. I have the tow package (3.73) and the V6. It does well in the snow but I have not tried to launch it hard in the snow.
