I think the TracLoc is a limited slip unit and not a locker.

Thanks for the info. For some reason I had it in my head that the TracLoc
was only suited to trucks that spent most of their time off-road, not for
daily drivers. I must be thinking of another type. For some reason, I have
a hard time keeping track of everything I've heard about all the different
types of locking diffs.
