The Smart Lock differential has a 4x4 limited slip and a 4x4 full lock. Does this eliminate the limited slip?

Yes, the TORQ Locker is not a limited slip, but it does allow for wheel speed differentiation and it does this by ratcheting. 2WD the locker does not lock, it free spins as needed.

It depends. A front locker in a 4wd vehicle is not engaged in 2wd. A rear locker in a AWD vehicle like the Subaru is engaged all the time but it doesn't have 100% torque to the rear differential. A rear locker in a 2WD or 4WD vehicle is always engaged. This style of locker allows for wheel speed differentiation and it does this by ratcheting.

Have been driving around a few weeks now with one in the rear in my Impreza. Went from open to spool to this. Works fantastic! Car is almost the same on pavement as a regular diff. The locker can't be heard. Only a few times I have felt/heard it "clunk" but nothing... nothing compared to my old Lock Right in my Jimny. That thing was horrible on pavement. Unpredictable. With this the car does not push/understeer as a spool. Spool made the car go from understeer to oversteer in blink of an eye. Off road. It just works. Like the spool. Theoretically it should not be as good because of the slight delay but so far I haven't noticed. Maybe I need to do some more rocks? The bad thing buying of one these is... that now I want one for the front too! It that possible? TorqMastersIndustries ?

You can certainly install one of our lockers if the fitment matches our offerings. It looks like you have a 5 Bolt style rear differential. We have heard from track racing guys that they don't like the additional backlash the locker adds, but you adjust your driving style to account for this. Traction control is not affected by the locker because there is no wheel slippage sensed by the system.

94 ZJ here... If i put one of these in my front diff (d30), and run in 2wd, will i feel anything at all aside from a little ratcheting noise? In other words, is it "open" until torque is applied through the pinion gear? Ideally, in my head, i'd have open diff up front until i engage 4-high / low on the transfer case, then it'd pretty much be locked... but I'd really prefer to install one of these instead of the alternatives (locking hubs and welded diff or $1k ox locker).

@banzaiib you are correct, the locker will only lock when torque is applied via the drive shaft/transfer case in 4wd hi and low. Likely you won't hear any ratcheting in 2wd, but if you do it will be slight. Dana 30's are our most popular selling model for the reasons you listed.
