I would get the torsen simply bc there are no cones to wear out in it. Its an all gear driven posi that can use the cheaper gear oil also, with no additive needed.

How would this Heavy duty torsen compare to the the stock auburn that was in there. I was getting alot of one tire fires with the stocker but from what ive heard this was mainly because that diff was worn out. The main thing im worried about is spending alot of money on a new diff and not having better or at least the same performance.
