On the "semantics" episode, I was siding with ChasH until the statement, well here, I'll quote it:

"Fact is the final drive might not contain a differential."

Ummm, can you give an example of that, I'm confused and will readily admit it.

A final drive might have what is called a "spool", which drives both wheels equally. Sometimes the differential gears are welded to give the same effect.
