What does torque bias ratio mean?

Torque bias ratio (TBR) represents the “locking effect” of the differential. More specifically, it indicates how much more torque is sent to the high traction wheel (or axle) then is sent to the spinning wheel. For example, when a differential has a TBR of 3:1, 3 times the torque the spinning wheel can maintain (75% of the total torque) will go to the higher traction wheel. If a wheel is spinning and can support 100 lb-ft, the other wheel will get 300 lb-ft.
