Default Re: Looking for limited slip or posi carrage for my 8 inch

I bought an Auburn Pro a year or so ago for my 8". It has worked well for that time with no problems and occasional hard use. I also considered the Power-Trax, but was advised against it by the local rear end shop that I occasionally do business with. I paid $389 + shipping from a place on the internet. You will need new bearings pressed on to the carrier (another $35 from a local shop) . The only down side to the Auburn Pro is that they are not rebuildable. Aubrn does give a one year guarantee and a five year exchage for about $150 should the unit fail.

Mine's been great and I do recommend it. Not much else really available for the 8" besides the Ford TractionLck and that Power-Trax. As a side note, I was able to install the unit myself with good result. The only tricky part is to be sure to get the preload and the lash set correctly.
