Mopar was the Sure Grip, GM was Posi-traction, and Ford's is Traction-Lock. All are limited slip if I'm not mistaken.

Is a Detroit Locker still considered a limited slip?

It ratchets rather than "slipping". It's an automatic locker, so given the name I wouldn't call it an LSD. I have a couple in my Bronco and in tight turns it'll chirp the tires without meaning to.
