Dear FOT,
I would like to thank everyone for their input as to the type of unit this
is, and the manufacturer. It appears that Michael did a pretty thorough job.
My older brother worked at Eaton for a number of years. I can vaguely
remember him mentioned these units, or something like them.

Bill, it certainly looks like an old Detroit Locker. The dogs and
springs look very much like the early ones, as does the case style (very
similar to the split ring gear flange on the old Ford 9" locker
carriers). I would guess it was one of the early ones produced by
Detroit Automotive Products (DAPCO). Since the product line has since
been sold to Tractech, which was, in turn, then sold to Eaton, Eaton is
the likely place to find parts. The maker's mark probably isn't going
to be much help--it's likely the mark of the company doing the carrier
casting, from the look of it. There ought to be a model/serial number
on it somewhere, and I'd guess it's on the ring gear flange, underneath
the ring gear.
Cheers.
