4WD vs. AWD. What's the Difference?
Outside wheel wants to travel more than the drivetrain so it would slip, not spin correct?
The inside wheel would spin if the outside doesn't slip.

More often than not, even more so than slip, the outer wheel will "hop". This is especially true, if you've done something potentially unintelligent like welding the spider gears together.

Not sure why you're getting downvoted. On high traction surfaces like dry pavement, the outer wheel does tend to hop during turns.
