You'll have to wait untill it's built first.
Then you'll have to wait in line.
And the line is growing.
But at least I'm at the front of the line.

Everyone has to learn.

Part time 4wd boxes don't have a centre diff.
Full time 4wd (usually called constant) boxes do.

They both have the front diff inside the gearbox (more acurately called a transaxle).
They both have a separate rear diff.

A Detroit locker was once available for the rear diff only.
Limited Slip diffs are still available for the front, center and rear diffs.

The mechanical constant box was available with a centre diff lock.
The viscous constant box has a variable version available.

Hope this clears things up for you.
