[QUOTE="Amp Wrangler, post: 26895, member: 13301"] Hi GMT800 Family, I have a '99 2WD 1500 RCLB and I'm planning to upgrade the open rear differential soon to a Eaton Truetrac helical-gear limited-slip carrier. While I'm in there, I also want to swap in a 3.73 gear set. [B]Two questions:[/B] [LIST=1] [*]Do the 8.5 and 8.625 rear differentials share the same carrier bearing footprint? [*]Does anyone have the[B][I] exact [/I][/B]carrier bearing measurements for the 8.625 carrier? [/LIST] Our friends at [B]dnracecars.biz[/B] have agreed to fabricate an ingenious tool to take a lot of the guesswork out of setting pinion depth, but I need the measurements first. Thanks in advance for your help! [ATTACH type="full"]5028[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full"]5029[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
