    I am trying to add in a transfer case to be Grand Marshal to make it AWD. I got the slot under the transmission category, and installed but the problem is that it creates a massive power loss on the car. On the ground, the car will only go around 1 mph. Don't know what I did wrong here. Here is what I put in the transmission JBeam:

    },
    "fullsize_transfer_case_AWD": {
    "information":{
    "authors":"BeamNG",
    "name":"Viscous AWD Transfer Case",
    "value":1200,
    },
    "slotType" : "fullsize_transfer_case",
    "powertrain" : [
    ["type", "name", "inputName", "inputIndex"],
    ["splitShaft", "transfercase", "gearbox", 1, {"splitType":"viscous", "primaryOutputID":2, "viscousCoef":10, "viscousTorque":500, "friction":5, "uiName":"Viscous Torque Splitter","defaultVirtualInertia":0.1}],
    ],
    },

    You need to add a diff to the "front suspension" jbeam, you need to add a transfer case, and you need to add a splitshaft, and get all that working correctly in the "powertrain" code....send me the front suspension .jbeam and the transmission .jbeam files and Ill do it for ya

    thanks....now that work is picking up (just had about 5 cars come in and I need to get busy on quotes) i will most likely just handle this at home altogether...but I will get it done for ya no problem :) will require a bit of trial and error, this is the only car I never attempted a AWD conversion for. (are you looking for AWD or 4wd btw?)

    I was quite surprised when I saw that there weren't many AWD mods out there.
