What differntial in 2016 6.2
#11
The 3.42 and 3.73 9.76 carriers are different than the 3.23 so we cant just swap the R&P
I tried to get the dealer to do that on my new order .........no GM 3.73 R&P for the 3.23 carrier although I hear someone making a ring gear spacer to use with 3.73 gears ......

Actually I ordered a SLT with All Terrain package
the 5.3 with Max towing is not available in SLT Max Towing with 5.3 is 6 spd only but gets 3.73 9.76 rear
6.2 is only available in SLT / denali with 3.23 with I assume 9.76 rear
Max towing with 6.2 is 3.42 gear
Hope that makes sense I did not key in all the combos with 5.3 Max tow but for sure does not come up when you select SLT

Yes 6.2 did not want Max tow as came with the big mirrors .......so will regear to 3.73 if possible
NO max tow with 5.3 with any gear comes up for me when you select SLT package but yes a 5.3 with 3.42 9.5 rear end is std in a SLT but Max Tow pkg not available from what have no only max tow in SLT is the 6.2 on my screen

click on selected packages,it shows SLT max tow[/QUOTE]
OK .... this is why its confusing .....what you show there is the Max tow for the 6.2 if you go further you would see the 5.3 8spd was kicked out and you need to select 6.2 .....
.In the SLT package only 1 Max Tow pack available it forces you to the 6.2
3.42 9.76 axle
But when you go into the lower models it will show
2 Max Tow packages ....this is the one that forces you to select 6.2 8 spd auto
and Max Tow 5.3 which which is 3.73 9.76 axle only with 6 spd auto
Anyway my point was the towing wts for the
5.3 with Max tow 3.73 and the 6.2 with the 3.23 axles ( no max tow) are the same which I found surprising about 9600lbs for each
