 Is a spool and a ratchet the same thing ?

Is a spool and a ratchet the same thing ?

No....

Spool is a machined piece of steel, with splines in both sides and NO seperate pieces at all, that Actually "locks" both axles together all the time. No "Ratcheting" at all. Good way to break sh*t on the street. (Friend found this out the hard way with mustangs.

Any "Ratcheting" unit will give and therefore, is called a "differential" for that reason.

On all the street stock classes most of the guys at my track just weld the spider gears, works and it's cheap, You just have to make sure you clean the tar out of it with about 5 cans of brake parts cleaner!
