...as long as you keep of the throttle and don't get BOTH spinning. Then it's as bad as it gets. It's also the point of this whole thread. I wanted to hear from guys who use them on the highway (NOT off road) about how much problem they have with both sides spinning out.


With a factory installed limited slip or a GM locking dif they will spin both tires going around corners and want to swap ends ... if you're in 2WD and only if you're not careful. This is more prevalent in sharp corners at low speeds rather than highway speeds on gentler corners.

As soon as you put into 4WD it becomes a non issue. Having one front wheel helping pull you through a corner reduces the tendency for the rear end to slide out at any speed. Bottom line, a limited slip rear end is very well behaved on slick roads when you're in 4WD. 2WD is an entirely different beast and if the roads are slick use 4WD. Problem solved.
