It is designed for GM 7.5-inch ring gear applications, featuring a 3.42 gear ratio (option GU6) and the G80 Posi-Traction limited-slip differential. This assembly is built to accommodate the ZQ8 chassis package and is specifically tailored for 1998-2003 Chevrolet S10 and GMC S15 2WD models.\n\nEach Zumbrota axle assembly is meticulously rebuilt to the highest quality standards. The remanufacturing process involves a comprehensive inspection of all components, including verification of housing straightness, checking for cracks and surface wear, and a 100% inspection of internal parts such as ring and pinions, internal gears, clutches, and carriers. To ensure optimal longevity and performance, all bearings, seals, crush sleeves, pinion nuts, and shims are replaced.\n\nThe gears are thoroughly inspected for optimal tooth contact patterns and precise rolling torque, measured in inch-pounds. Correct gear backlash is set to guarantee proper gear lubrication and quiet operation. The axle tubes are also inspected to ensure they meet OEM specifications for straightness. Zumbrota employs an exclusive hydro-blast rinse and sandblasting procedure on both internal and external parts, followed by a proprietary shot-peened deep cleaning process, which sets a high standard for axle assembly remanufacturing and restores cases to their OEM finish.\n\nThis axle assembly does not include hubs, brakes, backing plates, or axle shafts.","brand":"Zumbrota Drivetrain","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52870805619000,"sku":"RAA435-1965B-P","price":3064.59,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/store.motormia.co\/products\/remanufactured-axle-assembly-3-42-gear-ratio-g80-posi-traction","provider":"MOTORMIA","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
