{"product_id":"3-42-ratio-8-5-inch-ring-gear-axle-assembly","title":"3.42 Ratio 8.5-inch Ring Gear Axle Assembly","description":"The Zumbrota Drivetrain RAA435-1935-P is a remanufactured complete axle assembly designed for specific GM vehicles. This unit is built around a robust GM 10-bolt housing with an 8.5-inch ring gear and a 3.42 gear ratio, identified by the GU6 ratio option. It comes equipped with the G80 Posi Traction limited-slip differential for improved traction.\n\nDuring the remanufacturing process, all tubes are inspected and straightened to OEM specifications, and housings are tested for wear and cracks. Internal components, including the ring and pinion, gears, clutch, and carrier, undergo 100% inspection. Critical wear items such as bearings, seals, crush sleeves, pinion nuts, and shims are 100% replaced. The housing is then cleaned using a hydro blasting and rinsing process to restore its OEM finish, and correct rolling torque is established for precision setup and longevity.\n\nThis specific assembly is intended for 1998-2005 Chevrolet S10 and S15 trucks with 2WD drivetrains and without the ZR2 off-road package. It is important to note that this axle assembly does not include hubs, brakes, backing plates, or axle shafts, which must be sourced separately.","brand":"Zumbrota Drivetrain","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52870801850680,"sku":"RAA435-1935-P","price":1602.89,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/store.motormia.co\/products\/3-42-ratio-8-5-inch-ring-gear-axle-assembly","provider":"MOTORMIA","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
