People think their limited slips arent working because they dont truly understand how it work. You do NOT need to have zero traction on one tire for it not to work.
It is a torque multiplier unit. The tire that has the least amount of traction decides if the vehicle will move or not. How? whatever torque it has available that's providing traction gets multiplied and sent to the other tire. It gets multiplied by about 3 at the most. If you need more than that, it won't work.
A tire in the air situation has 0 traction. The tire on the ground gets nothing. A tire on ice could have 0 or close to 0 traction. Remember, if the torque bias between both tires is more than 1:3. It wont do nothing.
