found something new on my tahoe.
i had my truck up on the lift today and was looking it over. i seen something odd though. my front diff does not have the little electric gear looking thing on the side of it. thought it was odd because every other nbs i've seen has it o there even my silverado with the floor shifter. any way something else diffrent with this thing. i find something new everyday. just like i didn't know the rear of the suv's have dual piston calipers

yeah i've gotten into a few arguements over this. they only did it for like two years. most people keep telling me its autotrac when its not and that front axle proves alot. now just to get a 80e bolted up and i'll have a good awd machine with selectable 4lo. lol
