Rear Diff Clicking

I did a search on this and found several threads that discussed it, but there was no real concensus.

While turning, is it normal to have substantial clicking from the rear differential during slow speed accelleration?

If it is normal, is there an oil that can help quiet it down a little?

I am sure this has been answered before. Clutch-type LSD do click when accelerating and turning at the same time. You can use a gearoil that has LSD additive in it, eg Redline makes one, or you can add LSD additive - a friction modifier that helps clutch-type LSD's work properly (eg Redline and GM have that available) which will reduce that phenomenon. Thus you can either buy an oil with the stuff in it or you can add the friction modifier to an oil of your choice.

Thank you for responding, I was having trouble getting anyone to answer. It was asked and answered before, but there was no authoritative result.

Thanks for the suggestions, I will take them into consideration!
