Rear Diff And Limited Slip

[Mojavered]

I am in the process of getting my 06 GMC Z71 some new parts. I have the old 3.42's coming out and some 4.10's going in. Now my question is, is the stock Limited slip strong enough in your opinion? I have talked to 4 shops about getting the new gears and the last one that I talked to said that I should really consider changing to an upgraded limited slip so that I do not break my stock unit. What do you think?

 

Also, Genuine or Yukon gears? Thanks!

I went with Richmond gears. Good aftermarket gears are as good or better than OEM. They don't call the G80 the Grenade80 on trails for nothing. If you plan to get very serious off road, the G80 won't hold up.
