if you are looking at torx its not an eaton its an auburn , throw it away as i understand they arent rebuildable ,, besides its probably a 30spline (88 up cars and trucks) and youll need to change your axles to use it since you should have 28spline axles

I always thought that the Albrun units had the z clip thing in it and the Eaton has the two springs in theirs.
Mine has the two springs

eatons come stock from gm with the s spring , aftermarket eatons have 4 springs and HD eatons have 4 springs but they are heavier springs .

Yep that is it CRAP, CRAP, CRAP, CRAP, here all this time I thought it was an Eaton.
I guess I cant do anything with that. I thought the police cars had Eatons in them CRAP, CRAP, CRAP, CRAP. TIA

Improve Your 10- And 12-Bolt Positraction http://www.hotrod.com/techarticles/42584/ you could always try stiffer springs

they work , the upside to the rebuild problem is they can usually be bought really cheap , so if you need a posi and the splines fit your axles , run with it
also unlike aftermarket eatons your bearings from your current unit will fit also be aware there are two series and three series cariers , if it came from a 256 rear than you cant install the 3.42 ring on it without a spacer and thats not a good thing to do
