{"product_id":"3-73-posi-traction-remanufactured-axle-assembly","title":"3.73 Posi-Traction Remanufactured Axle Assembly","description":"Each assembly undergoes thorough inspection for straightness, cracks, and surface wear. All internal components, including ring and pinions, internal gears, clutches, and carriers, are fully inspected and tested. As part of the remanufacturing process, all bearings and seals are replaced, and gears are inspected for optimal tooth contact patterns and correct rolling torque using inch-pound measurements to ensure precise setup and longevity. Correct gear backlash is set for proper lubrication and quiet operation.\n\nThe axle tubes are inspected to ensure they meet OEM standards for straightness. Zumbrota employs an exclusive hydro-blast rinse and sandblasting procedure on internal and external parts, followed by a proprietary shot-peened deep cleaning process. This assembly includes the cover but does not include hubs, brakes, backing plates, or axle shafts. The gear ratio is 3.73 (GT4 option), with a GM 7.6-inch ring gear. It is designed for 4WD models, specifically excluding ZR2 models, and features Posi-Traction.\n\nThis axle assembly is for 1998-2005 Chevrolet S10 Blazer and GMC S15 Jimmy vehicles. It is not compatible with ZR2 models. It is important to note that this item is special ordered and may have cancellation or return restrictions.
