    I wanted to make my Barstow a bit better by adding a front differential. This worked but whenever my front or rear wheels are floating it explodes almost instantly. Then I tried to make this front diff toggleable by adding a 4WD transfer case to the transmission like on a D15. This made it worse now it's wheels explode when I want to accelerate but the toggleing dosent work.

    So i want a 4WD toggleable front differential in a Barstow and when it's ON the wheels don't explode even while heavy acceleration.

    This is my first try to make a mod. Please be helpful and correct my mistakes :p

    Sorry for bad english.

    PS: If the car appears blue it's an error I have taken a picture (that .png) of it.

    Haven't downloaded it and on mobile,but I've had this problem a few times in the past. It's a powertrain typo, one of the connections is borked. Check that section in the jBeam and make sure everything looks right, use official vehicles as an example and use the powertrain app ingame.

    The spinning is caused by two(or more) shafts with the same input.

    The barstow has a rear driveshaft with as input the gearbox:
    Code:
        "powertrain" : [
            ["type", "name", "inputName", "inputIndex"]
            //rear driveshaft
     -->      ["torsionReactor", "torsionReactorR", "gearbox", 1, {}]
            ["shaft", "driveshaft", "torsionReactorR", 1, {"breakTriggerBeam":"driveshaft", "uiName":"Rear Driveshaft", "uiName":"Rear Driveshaft", "electricsName":"driveshaft", "friction":1}]
        ],
    your transfercase should do this:
    Engine
    Gearbox
    Transfercase
    Rear driveshaft+Front driveshaft
    Rear diff Front diff

    For this you need to use the right input and index for the driveshafts:
    For the rear shaft: Transfercase 1 and for the front, you have to use the other transfercase input, transfercase 2
    (or the other way around, only matters when you want to add a lsd transfercase)

    Thank you so much for help. I copied the powertrain from D15 and it's working flawlessly. Thank you for fast reply and help.
