auburn rear diff

98Cobra_sleeper · December 5th, 2009, 10:09 PM

well my car is all but done, fixed the turbos blowin oil (was a drainage problem), ran coolant to the turbos (hope its works) and i had the 3:55's installed and took the 4:10's out. well, last winter my mechanic told me that my clutches need replaced. I asked my mechanic if when he installed the 3:55's if he went ahead and replaced the clutches. he told me that auburn rear diffs dont have clutches, its some sort of other kind of setup (he knows what it is but i dont), but that if its goin bad i have to replace the whole diff. is this correct? are they rebuildable?

It is true that they are different and don't have clutches, but I don't know if they are rebuildable or not.

98Cobra_sleeper · December 6th, 2009, 06:42 PM

yeah i looked on their site, i dont see anything about being rebuildable. that sucks!

im preety sure they arent rebuildable

Yes they do have clutches but they are cone style clutches. You can contact Auburn and the last I checked they will rebuild it for $150.

i was told when it goes out completely to replace it with a FRPP trak lok with 31 spline axles. should i do that or just rebuild the auburn?

What are you doing with the car? I actually prefer a Detroit TruTrac.

98Cobra_sleeper · December 6th, 2009, 11:24 PM

its a street car, i intend to take it to the track maybe a few times in the future.

C MY 4D · December 6th, 2009, 11:25 PM

I would spend the money on a Detroit TruTrac.
