    Read differential leak

    Changed the diff. fluid in my C1500 with the G80 (wasn’t leaking). Removed all gasket residue with alcohol and a Brillo pad until bare metal on both mating surfaces, made sure both were clean and dry. Used Permarx Right Stuff 90 minute cure time. Applied, mated the surfaces with finger tight...

    Confused on my rear end

    I have a 91 k2500 HD 7.4/4l80 (8600 8 lug) and I did a diff service last weekend and I realized that I may not have the rear end i thought, it doesn’t look like a g80 (where you can see the spiders) it instead is fully enclosed and has 3 pairs of rods going horizontal that are each about 3/4-1...

    9.25 IFS Conversion 0-3" lift

    to convert to a 9.25 on a stock or cranked 3" lift truck I'm sure you can use a diff drop kit and modify it,I tried it but you would have to shave the diff side fins a little bit like they do on the 8.25,and it just hangs too low since its already bigger.i didn't like this route so i went...

    Differential housing chipped?

    Hey all, new to the forum. Wanted to know if anyone has seen this before and what it means. Can't find a similar issue online anywhere. I'm rebuilding a '98 1500 2WD and opened my diff housing to find what appears to be chipping where the bearings sit? This is at the end of the axle tube, just...

    10 Bolt to 14 Bolt Full Floater Swap

    First, I apologize in advance for my ignorance. After changing the leaf springs on my 91’ 1500 this weekend, I now have a leaking axle tube. The junk from the roads over the past 30 years had collected in the lower plate that bolts to the axle. When I had to pull the plate off to change the...

    Front differential swap

    I bought a 8.25" from a 1992 k1500 PU to put into my 1998 k1500 PU because the gears match my rear. I realized after buying it that the 92' diff that i bought has what i believe to be a thermal actuator or some kind of actuator that my stock 98' differential does not have which means there is an...
