 | It can be called many things, that style truck would have clutch packs inside the carrier, that require an additive in the gear oil. they basically give friction to put more power to both wheels, not a bad system really.

| I have the same thing in mine and it works well - off road as well as on road. A locker would be better, but that's not really in my budget right now! The only drawback to the limited slip (or anti-spin as they called it) is that when you change your rear end oil you also need to add friction modifier. If you do not, the clutches in the rear end will not work correctly. A limited slip rear end that does not have enough friction modifier in it will also making clicking noises when you make a tight turn, especially in reverse.
