Here is some background on the OSG.

This diff has 20 clutch plates (10 on each side). The average clutch diff has maybe 4 per side

Also attached is a pic showing how the clutch plates on the TCD are precision machined with oil holes throughout. This actually turns the diff into an oil pump which circulates the oil through the diff and also retains oil on the clutch plates for quiet operation even when cold.
