Just as a side-note to all those who were interested in this thread.

I am currently servicing my FRONT axles. Clearly, they are worn more on the drive side than the coast side. So my Syncro (with VC) has spent more of it's life PULLING with the front wheels than pushing.

I'm pretty curious how NOBODY mentioned this before. Either they did - and I was clueless - or I am the pioneer. Its highly feasible that someone wrote this and I glossed over it. I did not read the Syncro Chat thread but I would like to someday if injured or otherwise bedridden. Shocked It HAS to be mentioned there, but I'm afeard to go looking for it.

It is NOT feasible that I am the pioneer who has just now uncovered in 2017, a proof evident on every driving Syncro out there....that the front axles do indeed pull a Syncro. Wink So, again, why would anybody think that the front wheels don't pull a Syncro?
