1) Drive a real 4WD truck with a locking front axle with only a 5 psi variance between the front tires and you'll notice a very definite pull to the side with the lower pressure. This is due to the reduced dynamic circumference of the tire with no differential action to compensate for it. If you unlock the hubs the pull will be gone. A difference in height would not be affected by switching from a locked (no differential action) axle to a fully open one.

2) You're asking everyone else to "prove otherwise". TeeSter and I have both providing sources of our information, but you've yet to tell anyone where you're getting your "facts" from. Please feel free to share them with us.

3) TeeSter, I hope you spend your $1,000 gift wisely.
