So I opened the can and found this in a 12 bolt Chevy rear end. Is this a stock posi traction unit or something else? It looks a lot like the auburn to me? Any guesses from the Chevy guru's?

Looks like the Coperate GovLoc to me.  From what I understand about them, they act like a limited slip diff.  Not the best but they can last a while if you take it easy.

CONFIRMED... Auburn Pro series Posi-traction (red springs) Auburn Standard unit has yellow springs  TDay


Anyone here have experience with the auburn posi units? Pros cons? I remember when this rear end was in the vehicle, it was always churping whenever it was turned quickly. That locked up sound. I think its a tight one. Now to see what is in the 12 bolt under the Jeevy.

Thats what that sound is, the dude said its OK...its suppose to do that on the heavy duty but it kinda sounded like the torc conv was coming apart when I really got on it. But this is the 14 bolt version. Well that was 2 yrs ago still out doing landscapin
