Re: posi vs. spool
spool is a solid link, makes the two axles a single unit, zero slip, but also dosnt allow the wheels to turn differnt speeds like the posi does for going around corners.

You can "get away" with a spool on the road as long as you have soft sidewall tires, be prepared to spend a boatload of money in tires though

My grandpa had one on his nova. as long as the drag radials or slicks where on it, it was not bad at all. If it had regular street tire though, watch out and get ready for a ride. Another porblem with spols that we had is we kept on shucking them out of the rearend...

A Locker is a tad more forgiving on the road than a spool but it still is really not meant for anywhere but the track. If you just need that spool like traction at the track but it's a daily driver you could always look at the ECTED.
