Limited-slip differential prevents wheel slip before it starts, utilizing race-bred carbon disc clutch packs that are pre-loaded by a central spring assembly. Once torque input changes, the clamping load on the clutch pack increases, causing them to smoothly transfer power to the other wheel as needed.
