Torsen diffs are pretty bullet proof.  They are expensive and only found
in flagship vehicles, which the POS Dorf Rustang is not.  Here is a good

tml , there is also a separate mailing list dedicated to Torsen diffs
here on Audifans, lots and lots and lots and lots ad nauseam info
archived there on the subject.
