Question Dynapack Dyno?

The nearest 4WD Dyno to me has a Dynapack 6000 - where the wheels are removed and the dynos are attached to the axles

I currently know very little about dynos
Are these ok? Or should I find something else?

Dynapacks are very high quality dyno's. They often read higher then other machines, so make sure you know what a stock car makes before trying to compare you results to others.

I also highly recommend disconnecting your drive shaft and dynoing RWD as all 4 wheels will spin independently and can damage your drivetrain.

How does this cause damage?

Porsche turbos are very rare around here, so I wouldn't really want someone trying to disconnect the front diff/drive shaft without prior experience - Is it an easy job or does it require some work and skill?

Would I be better looking from something else if I don't want to disconnect the front diff/ drive shaft?

How do you disconnect the drive shaft?
THANK YOU!

You simply remove the front diff. put it on dyno with PSM off.

You simply remove the driveshaft connecting the transmission to the front differential. No need to remove the actual front differential

Remove the shaft before running on a dynapac, do not run in AWD.

Is this because this dyno is actually like 4 little dyno's and all the wheels are NOT actually turning at the same rate? Maybe the left front is turning faster and burn up the diff?
