Q:
What is the purpose of the optional locking limited-slip rear axle, and how does it work for the 2003 GMC Sonoma? Posted by Customer
A:
The optional locking limited-slip rear axle allows for normal operation until one wheel loses traction. This differential includes a pair of clutch "cones" that slow the rotation of the differential case when one wheel is on a firm surface and the other on a slippery one, equalizing the rotation speed of the axleshaft driving the wheel with traction.
