Re: DIFFERENTAL!

If it's a 10 bolt then it probably has an Auburn. They wear out and when they wear out you can not repair or rebuild them. They are trash. You will probably have to replace it. If you do then don't get another Auburn. The Eaton Posi is MUCH better. It will cost a little more, but it's well worth it. When you replace it you might as well plan on taking the rear end apart to clean all of the powdered metal sludge out of the axle tubes and housing. The Auburn makes a huge mess in the rear end when it wears.
