What is a differential? Eaton explains the types, importance, and how it works.
3:07
This video explains that a differential is a mechanical device that allows a vehicle to negotiate turns while maintaining power to both the left and right wheels of the drive axle. Without a differential, a vehicle would tend to drive straight. The outside tire(s) would hop and skid in turns, resulting in tire wear and vehicle instability.
