Brad,
I hadn't heard that. I would expect to have problems with lead loosening and
flaking. Even welded rears can crack.

IIRC, I had heard that some used to put melted lead in the gears, to lock it,
yet be removable later, with a blue wrench.

I assume you mean a welded locker. In the slow corners you power slide the
car. You can't even turn the car if you're not on the gas, major push.
Differences in tire slip take care of the fast corners, and it can be adjusted
with tire stagger. Kind of crude, but it is inexpensive and consistent in
operation.

How does a locked differential not cause difficulties in the corners?


What am I missing?
