    Hello everyone, I just replaced my CV axles, and discovered a problem on the driver side. On the axle that comes out of the differential and extends out to place the CV goes, the bearing inside was damaged and dirt had made its way into the seal. What can I do? What is the name of that long...
  7. For Sale
    I pulled my OEM Limited Slip differential and 3.73 gears from my 2007 Colorado, in favor of a 4.10 /G80 set-up. The truck/gears had approximately 20,000mi at the time of the replacement and the gears/differential has been store in my garage since. The differential is in excellent condition with...
  8. For Sale
    Hey guys, I sold my '07 Colorado a few years ago now, and still have the original 3.73 open differential in a box in my garage. I pulled this out when I upgraded to a 4.10 g80 locker setup. This differential has about 20,000 miles or so on it, IIRC. I would prefer a local pickup. Right now I...

    Hey guys. So I've finished changing both front axle seals myself, but I wonder if can they be hammered "too far in"? I think I got a little over-aggressive hammering them in to the point of possibly deforming the metal ring on the backside of the seal itself, and/or damaging the...

    Hey guys, new member. First post. I got a 2009 Colorado LT, Ext.Cab, 4x4, 2.9 4-cyl, automatic, 76k miles, original owner, Inferno Orange. Last weekend, I changed the passenger front diff axle seal because a oily residue had formed around the base of the CV axle and a local shop told me it was...

    I ran into quite a a mess of problems trying to change the gear ratio of my 2012 Z71 RWD. The truck came with a 3.73 and I was trying to install a 4.11 ring and pinion. The truck should have a 8.6 inch rear diff according to all ring and pinion manufacturers (Yukon, Motive Gear), however mine is...

    Hello Guys, I hope this is the right place for this I did a lot of searching to hopefully find similar issues. The problem I'm having is any time one of my tires breaks free and starts to spin while I'm taking a turn, like say I'm leaving a neighborhood and i need to get to speed quickly and i...
  13. I4/I5 Engine & Drivetrain

  14. I4/I5 Engine & Drivetrain
    So this is my first post, and i'm really looking forward to getting some opinions and advice on my problem. My 4x4 isn't engaging, but my drive shaft is spinning and the differential sounds fine. Took out the actuator to see if it was working properly, and it seems to extend upon engaging the...
  15. For Sale
    Hey guys, I'm moving cross country this month and need to lighten the load. Up for grabs is the original limited slip differential (not a G80 Locker but GMs limited slip) with 3.73 gears from my 2007 Colorado, I swapped out the rear for a 4.10 G80 after I lifted it before I traded it in. This...

    I'm from the Frederick Co area of Maryland. For those who don't know Frederick is one of the more rural counties in Maryland. It's about 40 miles north of DC and 40 miles west of Baltimore. I picked up my 07 Colorado 3.7 Crew Cab used about 2 years ago after totaling my old 99 S-10 (plowed the...

    Hey guys! I'm working on getting a set of spacers, and figured I would drop the bolts out of the front diff mounts, and wait for the spacers, and the new half shaft to come... or so I thought. The Problem: I started loosening the bolts, and one appears to have a nut inside the boxed frame...

    I am so tired of the one tire fire on my truck. It seems like Im constantly spinning one wheel helplessly when its muddy or real wet and im pulling my trailer. I have a 2007 3.7 with 3.73 gears. I want to get the G80. If the seach function on this site would work i might not have had to...
  19. I4/I5 Engine & Drivetrain
    I am considering swapping out the rear axle for something with 4.10s that I can get an aftermarket locker in. Has anyone tried this and found an axle that fits fairly well? I would prefer to keep the 6 lug pattern but so far it looks like my best options are going to be a 5 lug since I don't...
  20. I4/I5 Engine & Drivetrain
    Hello everyone I am new here but I didn't see this one addressed anywhere, sorry if this is a duplicate. I know the H3 has the same platform and comes with an elocker in both the front and the rear. From what I have been able to find the H3 also uses the AAM 800 rear end, although it is a...
