Yup, that would be the "GOV LOC". It's a "3-pin" stlye, instead of your nominal 4-pin. Which means if it ever breaks, your up do-do creek with out a paddle because no one else makes a 3 pin.
If that happens, the guts of the diff need to be replaced.

It still acts as a limited slip even at higher speeds. I have had my back end snap out before the front could engage on me a few times over 20mph when I was just out on the back roads playin' around.
When I serviced my diff, I messed around with it just seeing what it would do. It was not easy to turn one tire at a time. Very difficult in fact. It required one person at each wheel to get it to spin.

Ahhhh, I just know that the posi in a F350, when drifting around a corner, is a lot more aggressive feeling than the G80, lol
