I've ran both and I must say the Eaton was better. The Auburn is a cone posi and it will wear out and is not rebuildable. The Eaton uses clutches and is rebuildable.
I had an Auburn let go on a customers, we found that it wasnt serviced offen and it lead to its failure. Metal from cone wear circulated through the bearings and well its all no good now. They have some nice lockers out there too...air and centrifical type.
