Is there a Locker rearend that is truely limited slip? Doesn't this type
of rear-end simply not provide any speed differential between the axles
("locked")? I know that's what circle track guys use (and they even differ
the sizes of the left and right rear tires (stagger)). I would think this
wouldn't play well with IRS (one axle would hop around corners?). Along this
line an even cheap alternative is to weld the differential (my dad did this
on
his ITB Rabbit).
