Default spool for 4wd offroad

why don't they make spools for offroad cars?

I think it would be great personally!

The shafts are much shorter and can take the punishment much Better in Tc but even them break when grip is high.

you have never driven a powere front wheel drive car with a lsd or even an old mini with lsd
when one wheel unloads and the other has grip the car pulls like hell to the wheel with grip, where as a diff would unload, (one way can give a similar effect)

I've run a spool in the b44 and indoors on low grip it was good, but outdoors it was hard to drive through the corners and it wouldn't carry speed well.

If youre interested the ntc3 spool fits straight into the b44
