Your explanation sounds right to me. I've just never see anything like that explained in how differentials work and it's been puzzling me. I guess I should have noted I don't think anything is wrong with it--it's been this way since new.
P.S. I don't drive my truck much--especially with gas prices as they are now. I got it in November 2000 and currently it has about 17,000 miles on it. I wanted an old truck for truck stuff and in 1999 I bought a 1977 F100 only to find it was a money pit mostly because someone had tinkered with it trying to make it a hot rod. So I sold it and purchased this one new and intend to keep it until the wheels fall off for whatever I need to haul or tow. This way I will know everything that has happened to it during it's life and it will have been cared for. Only down side is It's harder to pitch bricks into it--course I don't really do that even with the old F100 I remember telling my father just because it was old didn't mean it needed to be beat up any worse as he threw something up against the side of the bed.
While I don't miss the hot summer in the F100 without A/C, I do strangely kind of miss the 3 in a tree trans and that rough old monster look and feel. I had quite a few guys ask me in parking lots, "Dude, what year is that truck?" Heck even one lady at the office told me when she saw me get out of that truck her whole image of me changed--though I don't think it was for the better. ;) Still I used her comment to convince some of my coworkers who were teasing me that it was a chick magnet.
