Yeah my true trac lights em both up everytime no matter conditions. Can be tricky making tight turns as the locking action tends to push the front end a little bit. With mine being a 5 speed it really chirps going up steep turns when i let the clutch out in first.

sounds like it works to me..

now find a ditch or uneven terrain and go across it where you only have one front tire and one rear tire touching... if you make it out, it works..

My Eaton LSD works with only one rear tire on the ground. Actually happens more times than you would think

both tires on pavement. keep your left foot on the brake and stand on the gas for 3-5 seconds. why is this so hard to grasp?

The right tire spun enough to kick up dust, but the revs stayed low and neither tire seemed to actually break loose. I feel like this was a positive result.
