I believe the stock limited-slip uses clutches. They can and eventually do wear out. I don't know if they would make the car behave exactly like an open-diff car when they do, but it might.
Limited-Slip Differential is a broad term that encompasses many different types of diff, from locking diffs to clutch-type ones to worm-gear types (e.g., Torsen) and more besides. Posi-Traction is one specific type, and as noted above was specific to GM cars. --DD |
