[s-cars] EDL Vs. Manual Diff Lock

So, Keith (and Scott and the list in general), what say you about Torsen in
front, too? Sounds like Keith, Scott, and Herr Kluge agree that a central
Torsen sucks. Well, we're stuck with that. It also sounds like Torsen plus
EDL is the cat's ass. Rear Torsen on our EDL 95.5 and later cars sounds like
a good idea. What about the front, too? It's not impossible, Hummers do it,
so rotational differences due to turning must be surmountable, somehow. The
spider bite effect on the steering wheels might induce some kickback, would
be the only pitfall obvious to my tiny little mind. Any real zingers not
apparent to me? One leetle detail, where would one get a front Torsen? Rear
can come out of a V8, but a front?

Great summary Wayne!

Jeremy, my personal suggestion is to buy a 95.5 with EDL and then install a
Torsen.
