{"product_id":"remanufactured-axle-assembly-3-08-ratio-2","title":"Remanufactured Axle Assembly 3.08 Ratio","description":"The Zumbrota Drivetrain RAA435-2099U is a remanufactured axle assembly built to high standards of precision and reliability, featuring a GM 7.5-inch ring gear and a 3.08 gear ratio. This assembly is specifically designed for 1998-2003 Chevrolet S10 and GMC S15 models, excluding those with the sport package (ZQ8 option) or a third shock. It is also noted to be without Posi Traction on some listings, while others specify with G80 Posi Traction limited-slip differential (LSD).\n\nDuring the remanufacturing process, each axle assembly undergoes thorough inspection for straightness, cracks, and surface wear. All internal components, including ring and pinions, gears, clutches, and carriers, are fully inspected and tested. To ensure longevity and performance, all bearings and seals are replaced, and gears are inspected for optimal tooth contact patterns and correct rolling torque. The assembly also ensures correct gear backlash for proper lubrication and quiet operation. Axle tubes are inspected to meet OEM standards for straightness. Zumbrota employs a specialized hydro-blast rinse and sandblasting procedure, followed by a proprietary deep cleaning process.\n\nThis axle assembly does not include hubs, brakes, backing plates, or axle shafts. It is confirmed to be for RWD models and is explicitly stated to be without the ZQ8 chassis option and without a third shock. Fluid is not included with this assembly.","brand":"Zumbrota Drivetrain","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52870862897464,"sku":"RAA435-2099U","price":1988.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/store.motormia.co\/products\/remanufactured-axle-assembly-3-08-ratio-2","provider":"MOTORMIA","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
