Yoiu will get this with a limited slip differential. As per design.
One wheel goes, one sort of floats but moves some with inertia.
I adjust my Datsun slave by driving it.
As long as it goes in gear when stopped and the car doesn't creep with
the clutch depress, drive it and while in 4th or 5th at speed, mash the
clutch pedal, it should rev for a second but not slip.
If it slips, back off on the slave rod.
