He said the Posi unit, which would be the spider gear assembly. The gears and the carrier they are in. The ring gear bolts to that. What makes a unit posi is friction washers under high tension during assembly that limits the ability of the spider gears to rotate. The limited slip additive lubricates the friction washers with a friction modifier that allows the friction wahers shimming the spider gears to rotate rather than break when under great stress.
