ive driven cars with the truetrac and they worked great. no noises, no issues of any kind and you always got 2 wheel peels. i have one in my bedroom but i might just go spool. cant decide[:@]

I hear good about them and some bad too. But I bet they wouldnt wear out near as quick as a clutch type LSD. I hear that theyre not as good with hard launching as an eaton posi plus, but I havent heard much first-hand experience.

Well, I went with the eaton, 31 spline superiors and motive 3:90's. I think the eaton will perform better on the strip.

i installed my eaton when i put my 3.73's in. its quiet and both tires spin every single time. the part i enjoy the most is getting on the gas in the corners...
