DO NOT DO THIS!!!!
THE VISCOUS COUPLING WILL TRANSMIT TORQUE THE FRONT WHEELS AND THE VAN WILL
BECOME MOBILE!  THIS WOULD BE DANGEROUS!

And then the Fedrl Gummint will decree that all automobiles (not just
Syncros, or VWs) must have 4-wheel sensors that all indicate that
the wheels are firmly on the ground, before you're allowed to put it
into gear. The cost of this "solution"? why, just sign here, sir...  :^)
