I made some recent posts about getting a new Eaton posi unit i n my 96 F-150. Well, its been in for a few week now, and I really like it. However, recently, the back brakes started pulsating, expecially if I apply just a few clicks of emergency brakes before coming to a stop sign. Humm, never did that before. Anyways, went staight to shucks to get new drums. Got the drums home, and getting ready to get it up on jacks and let the drums cool down. I wentand put my hand on the differential, and Wow!, that sucker's hot! Not manifold hot, but I can only keep my hand on it for about 5-10 seconds max. Is this normal? Its hottest around the pinion/yoke area, but the whole pumpkin's fairly hot. Commute is about 30+ miles mostly highway, with neighborhood jogging for the last 5 miles. Anyone have any insight on this? What is normal heating with a differential that has a new Eaton unit?
Thanks in advance!
