    right

    all that will happen is the diff fluid will run hotter than normal in a straight line

    it won't cause noticeable excessive wear in the diff unless the diff fluid is breaking down from overheating

    front has a diff too, uneven tires on front and the fact front needs to steer, no concerns except 'itchy-bear-cub' steering

    Well long story short I made it the 400mi home and the diff didn’t blow haha

    No real issues driving....truck wanted to pull to the right the whole time (small spare was on the right) and turning off traction control disables the cruise control, so that was more work than I wanted but no worries otherwise
