No center diff, the thing would be useless with only rear paddles and a center diff. Can you say Front Wheel Drive?
I was aware of the issues with different tire diameters, but I figured it wouldn't matter much in the soft sand. I mean worse case, the truck has to spin the fronts a bit faster, which shouldn't be too hard. You should have seen the truck after the back end broke. I tried driving it as a front wheel drive for a minute. Hilarious...
