Posi rear identification
I am trying to figure out what manufacturer made this posi gear. It looks like an Auburn from pics I have seen but it has that added "gear" on the pinion gear? Is this an Eaton? Most of the pics I see the pinion gear does not have the added gear. I assume that gear is part of the carrier and not the pinion itself. Also what does that gear drive?
Thanks
Thanks

Re: Posi rear identification
looks like that might be from an early 4th gen-the gear like piece is a "tone ring"-there is a magnetic pickup that is close to the teeth that creates a variable frequency impulse as the gear rotates for the speedo or ABS brakes.93-97 4th gen used the Eaton posi.
