Default Quick LSD question.

Are limited slip differentials supposed to let ONLY one wheel spin every once in a while?

Let me guess...you have a torsen

They tend to puke sometimes when the going gets tough, and sometimes just do the one wheel peel.

Pull the cover and shoot a pic of the carrier over to me and I can tell you. A Toren has helical(worm) type gears. jwilson@jawsgear.com
