real posi is welding the diffs and most locker work when you get on the skinny unless cable or air or electrick. Lockers are more street friendly. Power traxs is very good

Posi-traction is the GM brand of limited slip rear ends. Jeep's is Trac-Loc.
when a limited slip rear begins to detect slippage at one rear, the clutches engage and apply SOME power to the opposite wheel.
A locker in its simplest form applies equal power to both wheels at all time.
The nice thing about an auto locker like a Ez-locker or Lock-Right is that they automatically unlock when cornering or turning.
A cable or air locker need to be switched off to do the same thing.
A spool, or a "lincoln" locker cannot be turned off so that you get REALLY bad street driving experience.
