Looked into it, and it's not what I'm thinking of. That design seems like it'd have problems when turning, directing excessive torque to the wheel with the slower rotation. Basically, 100% of the torque goes to the slowest turning wheel, unless the wheels are turning at the same speed, in which case it's a 50/50 split. This increases the likelihood of wheel slip on tarmac. It also could be quite noisy/unpredictable, as torque slams back and forth from side to side.
What I'm describing above with the select-a-loc design is a more traditional limited slip diff, with a typical open diff spider gear design, with a clutch pack included to add the limited slip functionality. Basically what was in the rear diff of my 80 series when it was made. Now, on top of that, add some locking dowels with an electromagnet, like the Harrop/Eaton design, to add a selectable locker feature. Best of both worlds, no compromises. Limited slip diff is better than open diff on road. Selectable locker is better than pure limited slip or open diff off road, but the limited slip helps you possibly avoid needing to lock in simple cases too. Auto lockers are a compromise both on and off road. This select-a-loc design beats everything else I've seen/can imagine. Unfortunately, not available for the 80 rear right now.
