Auburn vs Trac-lok vs T.S.D?

[Great68]

What's the difference in how they work and which one is better/stronger?

The Auburn is quite easy for me to get up here in BC, and it only comes in at $555 Canadian. I could probably order the T.S.D. direct from Currie.

I found out that the limited slip I have right now is the crummy Equa-Lock style (ewww). I put my 2.80 open gears back in until I'm done my headswap and can afford to buy a new limited slip unit for the 3.55's.

Tell me when you ready and or if your interested. I need to upgrade to a 9 in. and have a set od 3.80's and a auburn limited slip I will be getting rid of to fund this new beast. I just need to find one around here.

Just out of curiosity how did u like the auburn? i just ordered one because i got a good deal on it, but how are they?

auburn just plain suck. Sorry.

They are not rebuildable from what I understand or at least for the 8.8 they aren't.

 

[taylor4g63]

well thats a great thing to hear. Oh well, for what i paid i couldn't really say no. My car doesn't get many miles a year (have a honda DD now). Full differential with 3.55's installed and ready to just bolt in for about the price of a new auburn unit itself, so im not really complaining. As long as it gets rid of the peg leg im fine with it.

yeah they're good till the cone wears down.

Not a good idea to get a used one.


What auburn does now is if you have a receipt you can send it in after 4 years with 100 bucks they send you a new unit.

What would you guys think of a Powertrax No Slip locker unit?

Apparently they don't make the noise of a regular locker unit, and at least it will never wear out like a limited slip.

 

[Fostang]

exremely good while it last unfortunatly it doesn't last that long.

When it goes the car will not move nothing and just make a basball card taped to your bicycle noise.

It keeps your spider gears and uses them by being a tooth tooth contact. When it opens it up for turns it simply grinds the teeth on top of each other thus eventually wearing them down and not gripping for nothing.
