    Now I know there are trucks already using them, but is there any serious binding issues with the drive shaft when the ALSD kicks in on a locked diff?

    Muchas Gracias :hattip:

    Auto LSD looks for wheel speed differential across the axle. With the diff locked, by definition, there is no slip across the axle. Therefore, auto LSD will never operate with a locked diff.

    The correct question to ask is how it affects the behavior of traction control and vehicle stability control.

    No matter, there's never any issues with binding of the driveshaft. That doesn't make sense.
