Check out an Inside View of How a Rear Differential Works

Have you ever wondered how your car is able to get around a corner without the wheels locking up? The outside wheel has to be traveling faster to keep up, so how are the wheels able to spin at different rates of speed?

While the solution to this problem, the differential, seems rather intimidating to come up with an understandable explanation for, the engineering is quite simple.

Check out this interesting demonstration in the video below and tell us what you think of the simplicity of this explanation. It all seems so simple now, doesn’t it!?
