^HAHA...i see chuck posting his detroyed Torsen pics soon....
the good thing is...that the clutch type limited slips are completely rebuildable and is fairly cheap to rebuild. BUT...IMO...a Detroit True Trac is a MUCH better performer if you want a little bit of locker performance, but want limited slip feel. I've seen True Tracs STILL providing power to the wheel that's still on the ground while the other being in the air....the darn things act like a locker almost. That's what my vote goes to if you dont want a lunchbox locker or full carrier locker like a Detroit.

I am still contemplating the same thing... Keep reading all the post about the True Trac and how it acts like a limited slip and a locker. Just can't make my mind up if the locker is worth it though....
