I remember in Bosnia, in my city there is this very strange long curve. People would race, and long time ago they would race in those early 1980's Audi 80's or Passats with longitudinal engines. But, that curve probably had by far most VW/Audi's in trees than any other vehicles. Most were by far FWD, as Quattro until recently was very rare generally due to price. When that Audi 80 looses control, you can only pray, whether one believes in God or not.
My Durango used Jeep's Quadra-Trac II system. Variable torque split with a "brake lock differential" system. It was very very smooth and linear, but being heavily RWD biased by it sent power to the front as needed.
V6 models used Quadra-Trac I, a permanent 50-50 split in power front to rear with the same BLD system. Both were absolute tanks that never did anything squirrelly.
What year was your Durango?
2011, I had a Citadel with the 5.7 HEMI. Jealous of the SRT though!
