    I bought an Auburn posi from Jegs- $400 or so. Kept the same gears and the install was $160.

    I have a eaton brand new posi if you are upgrading to 3 series gears 3.36 and up 450.00 super strong and rebuildable down the road 30 years from now...lol Hopefully it will take you that long to wear it out. :) It all depends on the parts and the shop (or do it your self) prices labor. I charge 150.00 for set-up labor out of the car. 300.00 in the car...much more of a pain. gears after market will run 250.00ish posi from 350.00- 600.00 . bearing kit 100.00 with axle bearing and seals. add it up. Take care and good luck, Jim
