Default How to break in a TruTrack?

Had a trutrack installed today to replace my worn out Eaton in my Moser 12 bolt. How shall I break it in? I was told to just heat cycle it a few times. Is that all that needs to be done? Should I change the gear oil after a few miles?
Thanks

BTW, what can I do with a used Eaton differential? I was doing one wheel burn outs, so I am sure the clutchpacks or something is worn out in it.

Just have to heat cycle a few times. The first time they recommend running it on jack stands for several minutes forward and again in reverse. Let it cool. Then drive it for 5-10 miles and let it cool. After that good to go without a fluid change.

Have the Eaton rebuilt and sell it.
