Default Where to buy Eaton?

Couple of questions....

Anyone have the part number for our trucks, or my truck?

What kind of prices are the Eaton's going for? (carbon)

Where's the best place to buy?

Thanks,
B

You need an 8.5 10 bolt. I don't recall the part number. But that should be enought info to find what you need. They can range anywhere from 320-350.

Got mine from a store in NY that has an online shop through ebay. I called them and they were very helpful. I got my Eaton, a set of Precision gears and the install kit for $540.
So I guess the break down is something like this...
Eaton Posi $290
Gears $150
Install kit $100
Shipping was another $40...
