Most of the ones I’ve seen from the denalis are 3:42. Only reason I have t done the swap is that I’m saving for 3:73 and the axn swap. Haven’t done a rear end since I was 17 so I’m gonna pay someone else to set it up.
Direct swap. Unbolt the old one disconnect brake lines and electrical connectors, slide in the Denali rear, reconnect. Should be an easy 2 hr job if the ratios are the same…
The Denali rear is a 14 bolt upgrade that’s probably the same price as your 12 bolt… the Denali could have a 6.2, and the 6l80 if anything at least upgrade to the 4l80 while you’re under there…

Parts will be here tomorrow so I’ll have it ready to go back together...
Dorman gets here faster. I’ll grab the oem and have em ready for a planned replacement, Dorman also comes with the aluminum T so I’ll just replace the hoses on that one and keep the T
Well after all the steam dissipated, turned out to be the infamous heater hose and not the trans. The pressure from the hose exploding shot water under my trans dipstick and popped it up… sumbitch broke 300ft from my parking spot, talk about the best bad luck ever!!!
