I don't know what benefit a torsen diff (if that's what you mean by "spider") would offer. I can see using it in the front or rear to keep one side from unloading on corners. But the combination of stiff suspension and sway bars helps that a lot. Otherwise, it kinda acts like a solid shaft if used in the center...
I used 90wt diff fluid (which was the thickest that I had on hand). I am going to try the diff and then try the center spool. I just wish somebody made a heavy duty center slipper to go with that solid shaft....
