I recently found out I have 3.42 gears (code GU6) in my 1990 V1500 Suburban. I need to change out the axle assembly because so many parts from the old assembly were damaged. My question is what years can I swap out the old assembly for a new one? I mean, GM had to be using more or less that same axle assembly set up until maybe 2000 or something. It seems like the year shouldn't really matter much, just the gears.

Has anybody besides this guy ever used a universal set of lakewoods for traction bars? Or am I better off with a fixed set like BDS makes? Part # 22026 Heres the link I’m referring to: I’d like to try them just because of the price difference and the old school look. My truck is 17 Sierra 5.3 with a 6.5” zone, 37” tires, 4.88 gears, and soon to have a TSP cam and 3200 stall Circle D Converter. Thanks in Advance.

Hey guys, been searching but haven't found a simple way to look this up. I have a 2008 Silverado 2500 HD 6.0 Gas, extended cab, 8 foot bed, I am reasonably sure its a 3.73 axle ratio and it has the towing package. The truck has almost 180k on it and the rear diff cover is leaking (seeping through). What I want to get is: http://www.taperformance.com/proddetail.asp?prod=TA_1803 Has one on my old truck, its a nice piece. However I see that they only make it for a 9.5" ring gear. I see that my truck could be 9.5, 10.5, or 11.5. How do I go about identifying it?

Looking for a housing or axle assy for a 95-98 K1500 .( 6 lug , 10 bolt) would like 3.42 gears but I can rebuild what I get. I would like solid, no deep pits rear, and the mounts on top all in tact, no rot on the bottom of axle where U bolts go. This would a leaf spring rear, and not for a Yukon, or tahoe. What do you have? Thanks!

We bought our HD Brand New with the intention of having a sturdy, reliable and backed by warranty Truck. Our truck didn't make it 4,500 miles before it's scheduled oil change only to find during a family trip that the right rear brake was smoking. Into the dealership to find the Rt rear hub seal broke, would have never thought getting the seal replaced and repaired at the Chevy dealer would lead to more broken seals, replaced brakes and a turned rotor... Can you say Lemon! Anyone having issues with their trucks rearend? Our truck is now on it 3rd hub seal and now we're feeling sticking and brake slipping on the right side and hearing a "tick/pop" once truck is put into drive from reverse. Dealerships have yet to diagnose the issue/cause?
