My Limited slip in my '95does the same thing, I have difficulty not having
tire noise in many
situations. I've started using it. It's better than the stock engine noise
iin turning heads. :)

Hell, mine does that with the factory Trak-lok. I keep having to look
down and make sure it isn't in 4X4! I have thought about a locker, but
I have never gotten the truck into a situation that the limited-slip
could pull through, and I've been on a few hairy trails....
