Curious if anyone has used the Yukon posi and how you like it?

No one else makes a replacement differential for the newer 9.5/9.76 rear ends besides Yukon ?

I've been looking into this too, my 2018 has this rear.

I want to find a true trac for it if I can. I'm also wondering if they're worth swapping into older trucks. My 2005 needs an upgrade from the 8.5 and I haven't found a 14 bolt for it.

Do you know if anything internally is compatible from the AXN 14 bolt?

Your 2005 has the 8.625" 10-bolt, quite a bit stronger than the 8.5 10-bolt. Certainly not worth the hassle of swapping the 14+ into your 05 considering all the other differences you'll have to accommodate for.

Everything is different internally from a 14-bolt; gears, bearings, differential, all of it.

Yeah I'll go a different route. Trust me, my 10 bolt isn't strong enough for my turbo and my transbrake haha.

There are several guys on this forum and several in this region using built 8.625" 10-bolts with turbo and transbrakes.
