I have a 2004 1500. Its got an open diff out back and i want some double wheel action in its place. I remember going to the chevy dealership last year and talking to a sales rep. He was explaining to me that 2006 and up trucks came with 100 rpm locking diffs. Is this true or was the guy blowing smoke up my a**? If so I bet i could get a newer rear out of a yard alot cheaper than buying one of them truetracs. Someone HELP!
don't buy a factory G80. They are known to explode.
Buy a aftermarket posi unit - eaton posi, auburn, tru trac.

The stock gove-lock won't engage when the rear wheel speed varies more than 100 RPM side to side regardless of year model 99+. They're made for mud and snow traction, not for dragstrip launches.
G80 = Gov bomb = terrorist truck act waiting to happen :lol: I kill you
thanks for the direction. i was thinking a tru trac...
tru trac FTW!!! :thumb:
14 bolt g80 aren't as bad. its just the 10 bolt ones just waiting to explode.
I got me a tru trac off ebay for 350 with shipping. I have a G80 that i was going to put in but after my buddy done a good burnout with his i changed my mind quickly cuz its f*(&^d!! Haven't got my true trac installed yet cuz i aint had the time and i just ordered some 4.10s so when they get here i'll install it all. but yeah don't get a G80
how hard of an install be on a set of gears and a true trac? iv never played with them alone. always had someone build my ford 9"s for me. isnt there lash and certain things you have to look out for? iv never played with a chevy rear as the older ones always blew on me!
Hell I didnt know that, no wonder mine hasn't broken yet lol.Quote:
