    Advice for parts and shop needed urgent !

    Guys, I have this 2008 4wd tahoe with a supercharger on a 5.3L, last night I crack something inside the axel houssing.

    It reads GT4 and G80 on the sticker, but have no clue on the front differential.

    Since I have to change all the rear components, and most of u have been there with the G80, Can you help me with the parts numbers and a good shop?

    I wrote here to Ron but had no response yet.

    Since I have to change all the rear, want to upgrade to 4.10 front and back.

    help really apreciated.

    regards

    The GT4 just tells you what your stock gear ratio is. The G80 is just the rear locker. Are you just wanting to know what part number is needed?

    Another thing, you may want to junk the 10 bolt and upgrade to the 14 bolt. Most come with 4.10's in them from the factory.

    Cjrioja,

    This is what I know so Far GT4=3.73, and the G80=positive.

    The tahoe has the original wheels and tires, and supercharger was installed for a little motivation. At the end is not much power, it seems that the G80 sucks.

    I just want to change the G80 for a better setup, but in the same 10 bolt housing. And also will like to change gear ratios, to 4.10 front and rear.

    Part numebrs will be great from people that have done this before. I'm looking aftermaket. Not oem.

    Thanks.

    I dont know part numbers but ron should be able to hook you up. I would still recommend the 14 bolt cuz these 10 bolts suck.

    Ron just sold me all the parts I needed. Parts are in FL now. That's fast. Also got a set of 4.11 for the nbs.

    14 bolts are non existant here

    I have to do the best to beef the lousy 10 bolts.

    Also my truck has a D44 variant. Axel and spider gears are D60. Ron sold me a set of thick gears so I can still use my carrier !!!

    Ron has a great service, and prices are great !
