    Rebuilt Differential Help

    2011 Tahoe Spider Gear lineup

    Hello again, Gents. I said I would come back with an update and here it is. I finally got the carrier reassembled. My mistake was thinking I needed to use all the shims in the clutch pack that I originally took out of the carrier. As I was having trouble rolling in the spider gears with the...

After that you have to be careful because the side gears can fall out with the clutch packs and guide clips. One side...

    2011 Tahoe Spider Gear lineup

    It is a 3.08 limited slip posi with the gov locks. There are 2 marks on the spider gears and on the side gears inside the differential carrier that are supposed to be some sort of line up guide. Hard to find much about them on the net. They are not on the ring and pinion gears as far as I know

    2011 Tahoe Spider Gear lineup

    Thanks for the advice I will try again. When I read about the marks on the side gears and spider gears I thought they may need to be lined up a certain way. I will try rolling them in without the thrust washers just to get the feel. Could have been when I tried that one or more of the guide...

    shift cable problems

    Hi Folks. I hope I have an easy question for everyone. I was replacing my lower shift cable on my 2011 Tahoe. Where the upper/lower shift cables connect there is a spring cover that covers the union area. When you pull the spring cover back, you have to pull the white, plastic clip in order to...
