Posi or Positraction is a Chevy/GM brand for one of their limited slip traction enhanced diffs. Chrysler/Jeep calls their limited slip diff TracLoc.
Eaton posi, auburn posi, torsen posi........ Actually GM's posi is called the Gov lock not like I have one or anything. And welcome back to my ignore list moron

One thing u are really good at is name calling. Gov-LocK is a locker, Posi or Positraction is a limited slip.

Ok ok ok. SO. Sounds like a pain in the ****. So. I honestly dont think i need a select 1. I mean maybe i do. I do, do alot of on road driving. but i really would love a rear locker.
Does having an auto relocker eat tires fast?

Slower than 1 tire fires. Faster if you have a heavy right foot and make it chirp corners

If you're light on the throttle it won't lock. You didn't read the big argument with moron here? Wrong again djb about the Gov lock. It has clutchs and is a posi that I can overpower by hand when it's in "lock mode". Why would I have bought a locker if I already had a factory locker in the truck? Go ahead keep talking and proving your stupidity

I'll go ahead and break out the crayons here. I can stop it by hand because the clutches are all wore out in my gov lock which should be refered to as a gov posi in newer silverados like mine
Oh and FYI, it's not a pain in the a$$ at all. pop the pan off, pull the carrier pin, pull the axles, pull all the spider gears out, install the locker as the instruction tell you to, gasket the pan and fill er up with standard gear oil and go **** off big lifted retarded trucks as you drive around them on the trail. Easily done in less than an hour if your drums aren't stuck on the shoes
The lockright is a ratcheting annoying pos. It pretty much locks whenver it wants and won't unlock when it's supposed to. I had on in my truck and broke it. The ptrax is fully synchronized and silent. I always unlocks when you get the torsional strain off of it and it's silent in doing so. It's barely more expensive and totally worth. It's way stronger than the lockright too
