It started with me suggesting the guy try a spool if he wanted a good bang for his buck traction aid seeing as how pathetic the stock Xterra LSD is.

I've been defending my point and this is where we've gotten. Bang for yur buck you can't beat it if you wanna go out and play, if you're worried about how your X is going to corner at 90 then the compromises associated with a spool aren't for you. Otherwise there really is nothing wrong with a spool besides the whole eating tires thing, but that's to be expectd with any fully locking type unit.

Ever notice your vehicle gets blown around by wind more on the highway than around town? Your vehicle is effectively lighter from traveling at speed due to lift. You have less contact area at speed to counteract the side force. That's the most obvious effect.

I still wanna know if any of the people talking bad about spools have actually run one.
