Re: why does the truck lift up
there is just a whole bunch of things that can influence torque steer but your just asking about the half shaft.
the long shaft will flex more than the short shaft "twist".
the body and wheels are level so the short shaft will have more angle to it than the long shaft "nonsymmetrical angle".
any time for any reason you change the direction of energy you loose some energy.
the greater the angle the more you loose.
every pilot out there is highly aware of this.
the sharper the turn the more power needs to be apllied.
physics is a wonderful thing.
I'd just like a good explanation of what the half shaft lengths has to do w/ it??
