I would really like to see another experiment: Fill the diff with water again, and let it spin slowly, perhaps driven by an electric motor with reduction gear. Leave it running outside, in really cold weather. I would be curious what happens if it is cold enough to freeze, but forced to move at the same time.
That would be cool. I think the moving parts would turn to slush and snow and get pushed out the top of if motor propelling it was strong enough. Moving water is how clear ice is made... I still think this would end up jamming up though. Ice would force in from the sides on the smooth parts of the diff and slowly bind it up. I think with enough power it could turn to "snow" but I would like to see it. I don't think the average electric motor would be able to stop it. Maybe with another diff to increase torque...
@@volvo09 It would probably jam, if the motor/ the torque wasn't too strong. But perhaps something interesting could happen, if you were to combine extreme cold with extreme force. Perhaps really some kind of snow or semi liquid would be the result.
@@ClumsyCars look it up, it does eventually. That's exactly how restaurant ice is made, by flowing water over a cold surface. It all depends upon how cold you get it, but it WILL freeze.

Imagine if you will, You're a beautiful new clutch sitting on the shelf at the part store. Then one day Vlad walks in and picks you up off the shelf.... So..the next time you think you're having a bad day, Imagine being that clutch.
now what I want to see is a sleeve of ice used as a bearing, as in the whole axle tube with ice in it supporting the shaft rather than the outer bearings. Leave the inner bearings so the diff doesn't fall apart
you should have used your 3 diff reduction you built before so that it was massively geared down. I think it would have either broken free or destroyed something
Try freezing the tires in place and see if you can break free? Or if you can fill tires with water and freeze them and ride on them? Or an ice drive shaft?
I've had low HP/Torq cars struggle to break tires free after sinking into the sod and freezing. Not surprised whatsoever it couldn't break the diff free. I'd be surprised if a common low range (NP241/2.72:1) would break it free.
So thats why those darn things are so hard to drain and fill. A deterent built in to stop folks from topping them off with water at the ole service station.
I worked for a shop that had this happen on a vehicle that came in for repairs. The guy had bought a car that had been through a flood. The differential made no noise.
Use a rear axle like an ice cream maker. Using salt and ice see if you can use the dif to keep stirring the ice cream till it thickens up. Im sure outside temps could make easy work out, with the differential ice cream maker.
Back in the day, I kept my 85 Pony outside in the cold Canadian winter. One day when going to class, I fired it up (it always did) on a super cold morning and I put it in reverse (handbrake was done, I left it in 1) to move out of my spot and the car briefly moved forward. The gear oil was so thick that it kept the gear in place for a couple seconds. Never saw that again since. Also the oil was shit and the car was heavily abused (towing a boat - previous owner, a mechanic at that) so that may have had an impact?
I was reminded the hard way by forgetting that setting the parking brake, (drums), automatic transmission. Even tried 4wheel drive low range, may as well have been sitting on blocks. Lucky the parking lot had a little exposed asphalt, to be dragged across, breaking them free.
I could see this blowing up some 4wd "shift on the fly" transfer cases in the winter... Get water in your diff that goes un noticed and freezes, shift into 4wd while rolling down the road and BOOM 💥
I wonder if the diff would still freeze if it was in drive... As in the wheels turning and the dif full of water and then left to freeze... Would there be enough friction generating heat to keep the water as slush?
This is when I get angry at my crappy car that I would basically consider junk if I saw the diff frozen and busted the cover open....I would then hold it wide open put it in first gear and slide my foot off the side of the clutch pedal... something is going to happen...it will be of those cars you see in the junkyard and go "wtf even happened??!! How in the...poor car" I like to send my cars to heaven with a bang...they give their all, hold on as long as they can and go out like a warrior in battle...I will tell tales of them so they become legends, and legends never die.
I suppose if he got a push while trying to go forward, it MIGHT break free. But, I'm sure a lot more would break as well! [EDIT] Nah, a Lada diff wouldn't break! It would create crushed ice for a Moscow Mule drink.

I didn’t realize how small that diff was until he put his hand beside it
It's not that much larger on a comparable Hyundai Pony (Ford 7.5 based diff IIRC)
I hope this guy is safe and can continue his channel.
Why wouldn't he be?

If you're looking for more things to test, you should try replacing the clutch in a manual trans car with a torque convertor and see if it works.
That's complicated
It does, you can even get self contained torque converters that don't require a pump.
That's actually great
@@ClumsyCars how is it possible?
@@yacinealg152 It goes in place of the clutch, there was an old school drag racer who did it
"I think I smell burnt clutch". Lol, ya don't say! Laughed at that one.

You'll need to make sure the ice doesn't stick to the metal if possible

Big deep freeze right out the door 😀. Awesome for testing ideas.

Would probably break something else like the driveshaft first. Remember the ice has no where to go inside.

They transformed that Lada into a cold rod😆
You guys do the most crazy and interesting experiments. Great channel, great stuff 🇷🇺👍👍
They’ve been trying to kill a Lada for a very long time! Unsuccessful may I add!👌😂👍another crazy great experiment!
Ice-filled diff…also known as “The Siberian Parking Brake”
That car looks like it would have trouble moving without the ice in it to begin with
I worked for a shop that had this happen on a vehicle that came in for repairs. The guy had bought a car that had been through a flood. The differential made no noise.
Need t-shirts that say..Free The Diff....✌️
very interesting good stuff ... big thumbs up
I'm waiting for the "Can a Lada break the sound barrier" 😛
You just made an ice crushing machine.
Put that in your drinks.
5:06 motor mount has left the chat lol
Can you please put vegetable oil in a lada engine and see what happens? You can use sunflower oil or pumpkin oil :)
Use a rear axle like an ice cream maker. Using salt and ice see if you can use the dif to keep stirring the ice cream till it thickens up. Im sure outside temps could make easy work out, with the differential ice cream maker.
This setup will be a great drift car!
You have WAY TOO MUCH FUN!!!
It would be cool to see a diff full on non Newtonian fluid. Like corn starch and water.
Back in the day, I kept my 85 Pony outside in the cold Canadian winter. One day when going to class, I fired it up (it always did) on a super cold morning and I put it in reverse (handbrake was done, I left it in 1) to move out of my spot and the car briefly moved forward. The gear oil was so thick that it kept the gear in place for a couple seconds. Never saw that again since.
Also the oil was shit and the car was heavily abused (towing a boat - previous owner, a mechanic at that) so that may have had an impact?
Watching from Canada!
Came here to see what actually breaks, it's garage 54, something is going to break
I want to know what parts of a car you can make out of ice ? windshield ? What engine parts ? I know they made a car out of ice but that was all body.
I was reminded the hard way by forgetting that setting the parking brake, (drums), automatic transmission. Even tried 4wheel drive low range, may as well have been sitting on blocks. Lucky the parking lot had a little exposed asphalt, to be dragged across, breaking them free.
Ice is very strong. Been know to hurt or kill people in some situations.
Takes a Lada power to do that. So we will see LMAO!
Weld the front half of 2 cars together with a motor in each.then you can drive forward no matter which way you are facing
Try to freeze spider gears and leave rest of it freely spinning. Basically welded diff that you can unfreeze and use as an open diff again.
Now you can put a window on that dif
You should make a diy electric Lada car
Try it by connecting the engine directly to the drive shaft ! No clutch😁
Using a differential full of frozen water to make a Snoopy snowcone.
Are the motors designed for the cold conditions
I'd say that the clutch is toast now too.
In N.S.W Australia it never gets that cold
Hell of a quick and easy way to clean the diff on fluid changes….
Ice locker for the win
Drain the engine oil. Fill the crankcase with water. Drive the car.
Here's an idea - think of a car powerful enough, to actually make it. Something with a big torque.
Fantastic content.
@Garage 54 the link for the new channel is broken
The drift channel looks cool. Especially if you have some beautiful Thai ladies. Brilliant work guys.
Be interested to see what would happen if when frozen you removed the cover so the ice would have somewhere to go if it broke apart.
What cover?
The link to the Drift taxi does not work
I could see this blowing up some 4wd "shift on the fly" transfer cases in the winter... Get water in your diff that goes un noticed and freezes, shift into 4wd while rolling down the road and BOOM 💥
I wonder if the diff would still freeze if it was in drive... As in the wheels turning and the dif full of water and then left to freeze...
Would there be enough friction generating heat to keep the water as slush?
Ice: it sunk the Titanic.
No one in the video mentioning the rear diff already being empty when they went to drain it? 😂😂😂
Now, throw a handful of sand into the diff and see how long it lasts.
That pour old clutch disc isnt happy
They will run out of spare Ladas any day soon.
What happens when you engage low range?
Mechanic pro tip put antifreeze in when you fill youre diff
This is when I get angry at my crappy car that I would basically consider junk if I saw the diff frozen and busted the cover open....I would then hold it wide open put it in first gear and slide my foot off the side of the clutch pedal... something is going to happen...it will be of those cars you see in the junkyard and go "wtf even happened??!!

Can you do a water cooled gearbox with electric pump and small radiator and fan and see how long it can last
Bang Lada🤣
Should try this with the homemade V12 car and see if there's enough power in that to free it up or if it would just rip the differential apart
How to warm up the clutch
Ice sunk the titanic.
You should try this again with a diesel vehicle
Free the diff
So no using water as a greener alternative to oil then... :P
It's intresting with all the experiments these guys try on thier cars
They always do something I'm not expecting!
sorry the drift taxi link dosnt work
Clutch has left the chat
Of course this wasn't gunna work. What were they thinking!
Turn a differential into a coffee grinder.
Great, I really need to watch it now, lol.
Garage 54 may soon have a new home in Thailand.
Wow I would’ve never expected you to smell burnt clutch lol
I wonder how long a diff or gearbox would last with only water in it instead of oil?
I would of guessed ice in a grinder. Blender
Try pouring molten metal into a rotating diff
can you make a flat crank engine into a cross plane crank engine?
Change the title to: "How to burn a clutch using water in cold weather"
what abot water in a gearbox?
I literally just came here to ask if you would put red jello in a diff
MAYONASE as grease
Will a very thick oil and pressured diff work as a locked/limited diff ?
I like how they do challenges the russian way
Fill-up 4 tires with water and freeze.
Cover the back left hand wheel
take the engine and trans and as much weight as you can out of that lada and put a giant fan on the back and try to blow your way down the road!
I suppose if he got a push while trying to go forward, it MIGHT break free. But, I'm sure a lot more would break as well! [EDIT] Nah, a Lada diff wouldn't break! It would create crushed ice for a Moscow Mule drink.
Nah, no way in hell it was ever gonna move. Love G54 but I don't know why they tried such a dumb experiment.
