ok so I am finally getting rid of the 3.42's and getting a set of 3.73's, the problem is, I want to change out some bearings and seals while I am in there and dont know if there's just a "kit" or something I can get for it. I'd like to maybe freshen up the G80 too while I'm at it and see if I can make it last longer since I dont have the means to get an Eaton just yet. are there replacement clutches I can get for it? also what kind of lube do you guys run? I am probably going to fill it back up with Royal purple and call it a day....

-all I am getting from this guy is the gear set. for $40 I couldnt pass it up. they were taken out at like 20K miles and replaced with 4.88's

 

the bearing is LM-603049 and the race is LM-603012. you need 2 of each and you can get them from napa. how many miles on the truck? if its under a 100k your axle seals should be fine. i don't know too much about the g80 clutches and lube.

 

Thanks Lance. Its quickly approaching 100K (93K to be exact) and I dont want to go into it again until I change out the diff completely... Me and Seth are going to tackle it on a Saturday probably at the hobby shop so we have a lift and air tools and a press and all... those numbers will come in handy though for sure. do you recall about how much they were???

 

no prob ben.
yeah, just change out the axle seals, i'm sure you can get them from the zone
it'll be around $40 for all of them.
hope everything goes well with the install. it should go aight. seth has a couple under his belt.

 

cool deal bro. Hope everything's going well for you out there. I might be on your heels by the time you get back hahaha... nah, I dont honestly ever see my truck running 12.50's for a long time. I gotta rob a bank or something.

 

Get started early enough, so if you run into problems, you can make it the parts place.
