Alrighty, now show me what you're talking about...educate me if you will. I just did a handful of searches under AUTO-LOCKER. I found a bunch using that name and a few new "gearless" models too. ARB (user selected only), Eaton, Detroit, Easy Locker and Lock-Right. The gearless ones in fact use a clutch-pack....LIMITED SLIP. All the others claim SOME sort of LIMITED SLIP abilities whether it be clutchpacks or pinion gears. Relax now, lol, I'm not arguing. I sincerely want to find out more about these "auto-lockers" if you can help. I've been off-roading for MANY MANY years and apparently up to now, you either had an open diff, an LSD or some sort of Locker that was user switched. There are many different types of LSDs. To me, and everything I've read sofar, anything acting as an open differential, that locks after allowing some slippage is in fact a LIMITED SLIP. If there is something else out there, clue me in. Thanks!
