transfer cases love that. good thing it looked like an 03 or 04 with an open front diff. that could have been really ugly.

you shock load the front and center diffs, from the 1 wheel going from about 70 - 0 instantaneously.

I've seen so many super high powered cars on dynos over the years that it boggles my mind how straps can actually break. IIRC, dynos require occasional servicing and when that occurs they tend to replace various parts like straps at various intervals.

i'm assuming that the shop where the dyno was at would cover the cost of any damage in that situation.
