There is a reason they Call em the Timex posi...cause its a time bomb waiting to explode.
Doesn't Timex take a lickin and keep on tickin?
Apparently not...
One of the drawbacks is the gov loc limited slip carrier that GM used. This unit uses a series of small spinning shafts that fling out a camed sprag to engage teeth on the end of the shaft to make both wheels turn. The problem is that once you start spinning the wheels and these parts engage at a high rate of speed, the shafts tend to break and take out the rest of the gears.
