Thoughts on alliance or mascot, trc?
What kind of price are you getting on the eatons?

Really don’t trust any of them, believe they all just replace what’s obviously bad. I only buy Eaton because I’ve actually had one warrantied through them. Everyone else plays the dart board of excuses to deny them. “Shock load” is the usual go-to.
Powertrain 18918B was like $3700, Eaton was $4700ish, 20918B was $5000 from Eaton and new 20918B is just over $9k no core.
$300 more for a coating or treatment on the front 3 gears in the main box to make it a 20 series. ONLY difference between the 18,20,22 is the 18 series have no treatment, 20 series has the front 3 done and 22 series has all of them done (and a 14 spline Input thats pointless that makes finding a clutch harder. Seen plenty of broken input shafts, never seen one with the splines stripped off.) They all have the same gears, same shafts, same bearings same case.
Quote from Eaton rep “Eaton makes a lot of different tags but we don’t make a lot of different transmissions”. They will make minor changes like a bearing design or shift clutch but it has zero to do with torque rating.
So for anyone reading this that has a dealer tell them they can’t turn their truck up because they only have an 1800ft lb driveline they are straight blowing smoke up your ass, it’s the same shit, different tag.
