Not true. The opposite is in-fact true, unless the locker is broken, it will ALWAYS lock under power. The Detroit locker was great in my old off-road truck. I could be climbing rocks with one wheel completely off the ground and still keep going since there was equal power being sent to both wheels.
Right on!
With a locker one tire will either drag or spin in a turn with your foot on the gas, depending on how much your foot is into the go peddle. Personally I like the design of the Tru-trac the best for a limited slip with no parts to wear out. Plenty of people are happy with the Eaton unit as well.

any thing bad about the Auburn Limited Slip? I have been pleased with how the eaton limited slip has locked in my buddys trucks same with the detroit locker. Im stuck on the eaton but just wondering about the Auburn Limited Slip if there any good or anyone running them.... 4year warranty "The Auburn comes with a no questions asked 4 year replacement warranty through Auburn Gear."

My advice: Go with 3.73s and an Eaton posi unit.
This is coming from a guy who has had 4.10s with a Powertrax 'streetable' locker for over a year....
In fact if you were closer I'd trade you rear-ends...

having just destroyed my G-80, and grinding the teeth off the ring and pinion too...currently installing eaton LSD...was gonna opt for a TA girdle as well but won't fit without alterations to panhard bar. Since I won't be at the track all that often I'll prob not do the girdle. Now just gotta pray to the mod gods that my built 4L80 was as strong as everyone on here says they are!
