Powertrax are excellent.

Everybody who had pegleg 9C1 Caprices fitted them instead of the GM posi.

I was on the point of buying one before I sold the car.

yes its for 4wds but they do say its used for drag cars

and its locked all the time unless you go round a corner when it unlocks the outer wheel so it can spin up to the speed necessary to get it round the corner without causing the inner wheel to loose traction

i.e spool like operation at the strip but drivable on the street.

no i haven't got one

no i don't know anyone who has

but it sounds great.

replace the guts of ya LSD sure grip with this

I had one of these (same make) in my series 3 competition landy, it was a good, strong unit but would come in/lock up with a big bang/jar thro the vehicle. it sensed more than two thirds differentiation then locked with the toothed discs. reverse parking was a problem and would lift tarmac on a hot day it also killed a lot of halfshafts as the engagement was so vicious but they were made of chocolate on landys anyway!!!. I would not recomend one for a road biased car

bloody hell

they lie through their teeth on the site them....smooth in operation and quiet pops up all over the place

good to hear some real life experiance though cos they do one for my Borg Warner (suffers in the way landrovers half shafts do) and i was sorely tempted.
