I have an 05 Silverado ECSB 4x4 with the L33 5.3

I thought both rear wheels spin? but only the driver side does, did i do somethin to the rear already or is it limited slip?

I'm just worried cause i blew the rear in my camaro and i havent exactly been babying the truck aka offroading with temp tags along with a handful of burnouts.

 

Check your glove box for code "G80". That's the locking diff stock unit. If it aint there you might have just one wheel goin'. Or if it has it the g80 might be on it's way out the door.

 

i thought one wheel peels were pass side?

 

yea???

 

Yah peg leggers are pass side most of the time.

 

sounds like someone is in for some repairs soon

 

maybe change the diff fluid? just make sure you buy the special additive for it. it definately wont hurt anything.

 

An open dif can spin either side. It usually will spin the pass side because the torque of the drive shaft puts more load on the drivers side letting the pass side spin easier. The drivers side can spin fairly easy if you are going around a left hand turn an nail it though

 

your right but it also depends which way the truck is flexed. i had an open diff in mine for 2 yrs and doing donuts in the rain you can really tell with the weight shifting the pass or driver side will spin it just depends. he needs to see if he has the g80 or not and that will end this thread lol

 

I have the G80 code..... i'm gonna do a burnout tomorrow and see what happens
