Broken Detroit TruTrac?
Does anyone know what they sound like when they are going out? Symptoms?
I have a baaaaddddd feeling the glump glump glump from the rear of my truck is from laying down more rubber than cal-trans in San Francisco
I really hope I have a broken heim joint on my piggybacks.

I thought I had blew my truetrac, turns out my passenger side axle is broke in half. The caliper was the only thing holding my axle in place. When I would make a right turn, the caliper would allow enough movement to let the axle pop out of the truetrac
(Those 2 pieces are suppose to be 1)
Easy way to check if you have this problem, remove your rear wheels, remove your calipers and pull on the rotor. My axle cam right out..

Turns out the wrench who last cycled the suspension forgot to fill one of the piggy backs up with nitrogen when I had some work done on the suspension. Sounded like a rubber hammer hitting the frame, weird sensation. All back to normal with a call to SAW.

Well, I can honestly tell you, the website is wrong on the 32 inches. My Manual says, "Max diameter 38 inches". An the tech at Eaton says 38 inches. The unit is made with way better materials then before, reason being they up'd to 38 inches. I bought mine for that reason, cause I'm running 37's. The Auburn I had previously in their, died a horrible death! Max for the Auburn was 33 inches. I was told different, an found out the hard way after it went, an did some homework on it.

It's all good! You only know what they have posted on there website. I pulled my manual to double check, cause I knew mine said 38, but you gave me doubt! I have the 8.8, but building a 9.75 to put in, an am putting in the Detroit Locker unit in there. They're good for up to 40's. I'm with you, I love that unit also. Should have went with the Eaton to start off with like I wanted to, but got talked into the Auburn. I knew I should have stuck to my guns, cause that Auburn unit is in about 30 pieces!
