Good afternoon,
Does anyone have experience with a Truetrac and traction control?
My situation, I've driven a Duramax for almost 20 years now a 2020 Ram Hemi 1500 4x4. I routinely have to pull off half off pavement to open gate to property. I had replaced a broken G80 on the Dmax with True trac, it had no traction control and worked seamlessly. Tire off pavement would spin some, power would transfer to side on pavement and away we'd go.
I assumed the traction control open/diff on this Ram would be able to handle this type situation, turns out not so much. Took nearly 30 seconds to get full back on road the other day. Non stop cycle of wheel spins in dirt, cuts power, brakes wheel in dirt, wheel on pavement would turn a few inches then repeat. Seems to work as intended, and I understand what it's doing. Just seems to be either--too aggressive or not aggressive enough to actually work for me here. Iol
So question is, what happens with Truetrac when traction control stops the wheel spin? If it can't spin faster it won't transfer power.
Thanks.
