Opinions needed TWIN-TRAC or PHANTOM GRIP?
 
So I'm thinking about getting one of these two. They are both about the same price, but since I haven't had any experience with either of these, I need opinions. Which one do you think is a better buy/product?? ???
They look the same, but it doesn't mean they are. :-\

mine worked ??? ???...spring tension plays a big part id imagine. i think it also depends how much you shave off your gears to get it in there (less=more tension)

how can they not work? if I get both wheels spinning then I know it's working.

so when would this late engagement be? after the right wheel starts spinning? it's mostly for burnouts anyways.

damn it, for that mistake you owe me $500.

I understand that the twin trac and similar just push out and lock up the spider gears, how the hell to real lsds work? I know that they don't have spider gears, but that is all I know.

I just went and read up on this LSD bullshit. there are 3 types. clutch, hydrolic, and some other kind (torsen was a brand of it). the clutch one works just like the twin trac. hydrolic is as you might guess. and the other one was weird, I didn't understand it fully, I better go read it again
