Chevy Rear-End Needed

[ThsPoq]

Posting for a friend.

He blew out the rear end in his 95 1500 4x4. The axle number is GU6. Not sure about the gear ratio or anything, but if you have anything, please PM me.

good luck. they aint cheap anymore.


and your sig scares me.....

[nickyroo]

have you looked into getting a rebuild kit

[HatefulMechanic]

unless it thrashed the case, its cheaper to rebuild one. more then likely, it has a bad pinion bearing, and some spider gears broken too.....(most common failure on them that i have seen)

400 in parts, 200ish labor and its new again.

Tell him to swap it to a 14bolt. It is a much stronger axle than the stock 10 bolt.

might as well swap it out and put some better gears in it, like 4.11's or something, it will get ur moneys worth

This is one of my buddies. he as a 14 bolt for sale but if you go to 14 bolt in then you will ahve 8 lug so you might consider doing 8 lug in the front or something.

I know a guy that sells 14 bolts w/ 4.56's and a detroit for like 600, brand new still in the crate.

[mxjeepin]

800 bucks for a used 10 bolt?

What kinda warranty? If I can get an axle with a warranty I'll do it all day especially a 10bolt. You stomp it hard enough on dry pavement and you can tear the gears up with just 33's.
