A bevel gear differential, also referred to as an "open" differential, is modified by asymmetrically distributing bevel pinions around a central axis of a pair of side bevel gears. The asymmetrically distributed pinions generate imbalanced radial forces acting on the side gears, which are converted into increased frictional resistance to differentiation. The force imbalance is managed at frictional interfaces to support a wider range of performance options.
