2011 GMC Yukon Denali questions?
 
So I've been looking at the 2011 AWD Yukon Denali's and what I know is they come with the 6.2L motor, 6L80e.....

What rearend is spec'd for these beasts?
Is the frame painted or wax coated?
What AWD xfer case is used?

thanks!

Transfer Case Description and Operation

The Borg Warner (BW) model 4485, RPO NR3 transfer case is a 1-speed, full time, all wheel drive (AWD), transfer case. The transfer case provides power to both axles, through an external planetary type differential, which has 2 different sets of pinion gears. The planetary differential provides a 40/60 torque split, front/rear, full time. This means both axles are constantly being driven for maximum traction in all conditions.

My wife has a 2010, the frame is still wax dipped. I think it also has 3.73 gears but I may have to look to make sure.

i find it a little funny that a waxed vs painted frame is a selling point..

Grippy,
unless you require AWD or Denali
you can get a Max trailer package with the same drivetrain and rear end
in 4wd or 2wd for way less money even in the LTZ or STL Trim package.
Just sayin

I didn't know that....hmm....I thought the standard engine was the 5.3 in the Yukon/Tahoe setups?

It is.

I believe you can get the 6.2 in the Sierra/Silverado's with the lower packages, but not in the Yukons/Tahoes.
