No, that is how an open diff works, it sends more power to the spinning wheel. A limited-slip sends power to the non-spinning wheel when one wheel starts to spin. A locker locks both wheels together unless/until there is a great speed difference between them (such as turning), then one wheel unlocks.toddious said:so would thes be the opposite of an open differential? so when one tires starts to spin, THAT is the tire that gets power?
BenS said:It has been mentioned that to install the front locker you need to remove the ring gear. Does this completely mess up the gear alignment? What is involved with removing the front ring gear. Thanks.
jasonb said:There are about 8-10 bolts holding the ring gear to the carrier. You will need to put a prybar/screwdriver/whatever in the yolk to keep it from spinning to remove those bolts. I removed the ring gear when I installed and removed my No-Slip. I didn't even try it without so I don't know if you have to. It would have been really tight without removing it if it was possible. I am not aware of any issue with gear alignment that this would cause. You could always mark the ring gear bolt holes to match them back up if you want.
