"Torque Splitting" is a misnomer. Torque depends on resistance. How many ft-lbs of torque can you put on a nut in midair? The same amount as a tire in midair. None. Therefore, by definition, the axle with the traction is getting 100% of the torque. With a locker or limited slip, 100% of the torque is going to other tire if one's in the air (with a limited slip that's not very much, but it's all there is).
