I've seen a few broken spools

since they switched to Detroit products... nothing broken or damaged!

And like I said before I run the full detroit locker in my F-150 thats lifted 11.5"s and running 38.5" tires on it... never broke a detroit locker.

Yeah I know they are expensive, BUT they are garunteed!
And they'll save ya from breaking axle shafts and ujoints...

It's clutchless, so it never wears out, but it does allow for one wheel to spin around corners (only when your off the gas though)
So I think its better than a spool for people who drive it daily as well. But your right, you only race yours!

So I'll be going with the detroit when it comes time to rebuild the rear end
they might be running a mini spool I dont see any road race or oval track car running full spool because it does not allow the rear tires to spin at diff. speeds I run a full spool which is only for drag racing and there is no way a locker is stronger a locker still has teeth and they can still break the spool im running has been used in many pro drag cars running 1000+ hp with almost none broken
