Yup, that's exactly what we rally loonies do when we lose an axle, wheel, or
whatever. In fact, the very fact that we can get a true 1WD (versus simply
being stuck) is another reason why we use limited slip diffs. Dragging the
brake isn't possible all the time, of course. So, that's why I was asking
about the Peloquin with shim kit combination. :^)
