Quaife LSD slippage torque?
I was just messing around with the transmission I have with a quaife lsd. I found that the unit starts to slip at 84 in pounds. I think that's a fairly good number and was wondering if anyone else has checked their's?

I could be wrong, but aren't Quaife units TBD type, not LSD?
In that case, with a wheel off the ground, there should be little to no resistance...?

I think your right about the Quaife type . .tho' IIRC, with a wheel off the ground, there should be a complete lock wrt the other wheel ... they use planitary worm gears, or some such for the torque biasing.(Again, IIRC)
