Description

The US Powertrain differential is a remanufactured GM 8.5-inch rear unit, featuring a 3.73 gear ratio and Posi-Traction for enhanced performance. It is engineered as a direct replacement, ensuring a proper fit for compatible vehicles. This remanufactured differential undergoes a rigorous process: the housing is 100% inspected, then cleaned and blasted to achieve an OEM finish. All new gaskets, OE-quality seals, and OE-quality bearings are installed. Any parts that do not meet original equipment specifications are replaced, ensuring reliability and longevity. The differential utilizes a 10-bolt housing and does not include mounting hardware. It is compatible with various Chevrolet and GMC 1500 series trucks from 1988-1999, as well as Chevrolet Blazer, GMC Jimmy, GMC Yukon, and Chevrolet Tahoe models from the early to mid-1990s through 1999.
