King, I have a supplier in Montana, so shipping is a little bit..But it breaks down like this: True Trac $550, ring and pinion $185, bearing/install pkg $100, solid spacer to replace crush sleeve $40, Billet Chromoly 7290 Mopar 29spline yoke $161, "Green" sealed roller axle bearing set $50. The True Trac requires the removal of the end play adjusters, hence the green bearings. The car it went into is driven hard, and makes some power, so I replaced the yoke with one that wont ever break. Labor is always between you and your shop or mechanic. Out the door was about $1250. I can gauranty this car will never break it. I've seen local "rebuilt" centersections go for $250 more, with remanned cone types and no new axle bearings. Some guys pay over and over to replace them. The new Aburns are the same type of cone deal. Once they do slip, they will slip worse,and will be dead fairly quick in a hard driven car. Several locals went thru them in 1 summer. I dont really like doing things more than once. If you do it twice, you have spent more than doing it once really well would have cost.
Bullet, That is a factory clutch type. The factory auburn produced cone type was never designed to be rebuilt. They simply wear the housing and the cones, and they are metal on metal from day one. Some guys do rebuild them, and shim the spider gears so they arent dangerous or weaker, but once they sliip once or twice, they wear, and every time the metal in the oil gets in them and slips again, they wear faster. I'd stick a magnet in there if you rebuild one. It may keep it around longer. The trick would be to win this auction, but dont have him ship the case if you dont need it. It's heavy and that Sure Grip will bolt into any 8 3/4 housing. It will need to be rebuilt tho. The frictions, steels, and springs shouldnt cost more than $70 to make it "good as new".
