I just took off the front differential on my Escalade, due to a wining noise that it had for some time now, open it up and found both bearing broken and alot of metal shaving on the fluid? Now where can I get this parts other than the stealership? I want to get the gears as well.
Thanks

Get the part numbers off the bearings and races and go to NAPA for Timken bearings. Randy's Ring and Pinion or Yukon Gear could get you replacement gears. 4wheelparts.com is always a dependable source for parts, too.

Yeah, I believe you got it figured out there. Shipping directly to you may be cheaper than the gas to go pick them up but if you need them to rebuild the front end this weekend you may have to make a roadtrip to SA or your closest store. Be sure to call ahead and check that they have exactly what you need in stock.

nationaldrivetrain.com is also a good source for quality parts and great customer service. The last two gear changes i did i went thru them and had no troubles.
Thanks alot for the help guys, I just order the parts, gears and master kit, hopefully since this are aftermarket parts I won't have to mess with it again.
