Well, that's something else I want to see a snowdog talk about. According
to all of the documentation I can find on ATB (HLSD) diffs, they should be
just about as worthless in ice/snow as an open diff. If one wheel still
has 5% traction, then it should be okay, but if one wheel goes to 0%, it's
just like having regular spiders. Maintenence aside, I think I'll stick
with my VLSD for that.
