Is a limited slip differential the same thing as a regular differential? And how come some cars like FWD don't have them?

Very nice how he showed the progression of spokes to gears. Teaching as it should be! Nice find E - keep 'em coming!

I still don't get it...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AHmSDXrVG84 So does an LSD make both wheels spin at the same velocity just like a regular axle without a differential? EDIT: Nvm, I get what it does now. So the wheel on the road will still get power even if the other wheel slips on the grass and needs to spin faster. But wasn't the differential working just like that in the first video? Or does that differential work by giving 100% torque/power to the slipping wheel and 0 to the one that has traction?

Great post Ekaru.

Some LSD's use locking while braking too, to adjust the traction of the car without only depending on the brake balance.
