Gears & Axles - spools and lockers on the street?

How bad are they on the street? anyone can tell me the good the bad and the ugly on them? thanks!

search feature, lots posted on this already.

locker will act like a posi.
i've had both..had locker now have spool.

spool on my 17" nittos really isn't bad, just can't take turns fast. i have no problem with it.

The spool gets a little annoying on tight slow turning like parking lots. Other than that it's fine. And as far as high speed turns I haven't noticed any changes in how the car reacts or handles. And trust me I test it out all the time!

i would think a spool would be ok except low spped turning lik eparkinlots and stuff.
i have a locker and not really any issues then getting use to the noise of it on tight ass low speed turns, and try not to gas it to much in those cases, locks and spins :jest:
next time you stop by slowhawks mike and i both have lockers you can ride in and see what ya think. we know they work killer a the track :)

I have a spool and with 26" tires is skipped and barked all over the place, once I put 28"s one, it drives 100% better because there is more flew in teh sidewall, I almost forget it is there except for tight turns

well most of the time I will be on stock SS rims with a 285/40/17 tire :(

Ive got Moser 9" spool on 17X11 zr1's with eagle gsd3's in the back. only sucky part is tight slow turns. Im goign to swap out the Gsd3's as their tread pattern hates the spool making them grab alot more.
