I don't know if Powertrax makes a lsd/posi device that typically use a clutch
pack to aid traction. I think their claim to fame is the lock-rite which is a
mechanical device that replaces the spider gears. It uses springs to engage
two drums (I don't know what else to call them) that lock the axles together.
I don't know much about this new no-slip except that they claim it's a locker
but it is not supposed to have the downside of the clicking/ratcheting sound
that the lock-rite has when engaging/dis-engaging.
They make variations on the above themes, like replacement carriers that are
supposed to be stronger and such, but I'm looking for the "drop-in" unit.
I'd be curious to know what they say.
