  1. Very good explanation. Limited slip or positraction diffs are good but can get you into trouble. Ask me how I know! Air or electrical locking differentials are much better and give you the option to run an open diff or a "locked" diff. There's also another way which is using the ABS to intermittently apply and release the brake at the slipping wheel and allow the diff to apply more power to the non slipping wheel. You still have an open diff but when needed the ABS system gives you that "limited slip" feature. I have the ARB Air Locker in my Nissan Frontier 4X4's rear diff. Works great!
