[Spridgets] Detroit locker?

[Ron Soave]

I have Tran-X 3.9, 4.22 and 4.55 setups on Spridget race cars (I’ve never actually purchased one outright, they came with the cars or parts pikes). They work perfectly but make godawful moaning noises if you're pushing the cars around for any reason. I guess in thinking about it, I’ve had factory limited slip on pretty much every modern car I’ve owned without really thinking about it, from Miatas to Corvettes.
