You gonna sparkle that diff?:popcorn:
Ya god dang right I am!

The plan is cut everything off the other axle and weld it on this one with a plasma torch, re powder the beefy diff cover to my sparkly goodness (aka diamond dust). Put the old calipers off the front of the Tahoe with the power stop pads but get new H2 rotors. Gotta buy the pigtail that plugs into the electronic locker, a lube locker gasket, and gear oil, then finally paint it all blaccckkkk with cheap tractor paint/chassis saver.

Any chance it'll fit a '900?

It should fit right up just like the AXN 9.5sf but you gotta go 8 lug or use conversion adapters and this axle is already a tad wider.
H2 axle is 70 7/8"
NNBS 10B is 68.5 (IIGC)


***EDIT*** I should also add that I believe the H2 locker could be inserted into the NNBS 9.5sf 14b without any issue. My source is that the same carrier for an H2 is listed as fitting NNBS rear axles. https://www.randysworldwide.com/shop/yc-g40013506

Oh idk you want measurements? Or want to just take the damn thing and test lol

Measurements might be good enough! Actually, I'll need to know the measurements regardless. We'd be taking Jenn's car to Florida and, between all three of us and luggage, we might not have room.

No rush, but I guess the easiest way would be to sketch it up and write the measurements. What's the significance over a regular Suburban/XL bar? Is it solid? Bigger OD?

It’s bigger diameter for sure, looks the same as my hellwigs and I can get a side By side shot of it next to the rear hellwig because I broke an endlink pulling the amazon van out 2 weeks ago and have it removed lol.
