pressure from the spiders, the retaining clips hold the ears of the plates while the disks on the shafts slide past. its a very basic LSD, a factory option, not the best LSD by any means. thats why as it wears it becomes less and less tight, cause there is no spring to compensate for the reduction of pressure. and I know mine is cause i had it apart to replace the clutch packs, and no worries.
