Strong differential but hard to find parts for.

I have heard they are bullet proof but you either have a single wheel drive or you can go with a locker but no in between. Yes it is the Eaton.

Re: 3/4 Ton rear end ID?
Same rear in my 3/4ton 4x4 I bet its got some low gears in it. Like stated there either peg legs or lockers lol. Im still searching for a center section with a locker and 4.56 gears. Almost impossible to find parts for.

Re: 3/4 Ton rear end ID?
Thanks guys'
I bought this truck no engine or trans, lots of rust, basicly a parts truck. I was trying to figure out if it was worth saving. Any way to tell if it's a locker with out taking it apart? All your comments are much appreciated, Greg |

Re: 3/4 Ton rear end ID?
With the tires off of the ground, rotate one. If the other turns in the same direction, it is a posi/locker. If it turns in the opposite direction, it is open.

Re: 3/4 Ton rear end ID?
I asked the same questions a couple years ago. Here's a thread to the advice I got back then:
