After some digging, the motul synthetic stuff doesn't have the typical Limited slip additives and friction modifiers common in most synthetic gear oils which is why it is being recommended.

The units require unique bearings either for retro-fitment or to accommodate larger than stock axle shafts. What kind of break-in is required? While the time required to fully lap the gears will vary depending on driving style and loads, the units will operate smoother with age.

Does the Detroit Truetrac lock up? The Truetrac operates by transferring power from the spinning wheel to the wheel with the most traction.

If one tire breaks traction, the amount of rotation or spin is controlled by transferring the lost traction to the higher traction wheel. I use my car on the street and on the strip, will the Detroit Truetrac hold up? On the street, the operation of the Truetrac will be transparent.

You will not know it is there until you need it. In racing situations, the unit will apply torque to both tires and launch straight as an arrow, time after time. The Detroit Truetrac is manufactured with forged and heat-treated cases with extremely high-quality gearing.

The Truetrac is designed to be the strongest component in your axle assembly. How much horsepower and torque will the Truetrac handle? Detroit Truetrac is designed to handle more torque power than the axle shafts it drives.

Horsepower has little influence on the differential since it is more of a function of engine RPM. The exceptions are: 10 bolt 8. What kind of break-in is required? The Truetrac units do not require a break in.

When does the Truetrac lock up? The Truetrac operates by transferring power from the spinning wheel to the wheel with the most traction.

If one tire breaks traction, the amount of rotation or spin is controlled. The torque is then sent to the other tire that still has traction. I use my car on the street and on the strip, will the Truetrac hold up? On the street, the operation of the Truetrac will be transparent. You will not know it is there until you need it.
