Help: 2007 PPV Rear Differential Spider Gear Kit & Clutch Plate Set

[jz57]

Does any member have 1st hand experience of aftermarket 2007 PPV Rear Limited Slip (G80) Differential Spider Gear Kit & Clutch Plate Set info?

I am trying to replace broken spider gear for my 2007 PPV, where can I buy aftermarket Limited Slip (G80) Differential parts? I did a lot of online search with NO luck. Dealer price is very high, Yukon Gear's set does compatible with GM factory differential; rockauto.com does not offer Limited Slip spider gear.

I was under the impression the g80 gov lock was non serviceable. You might be better off finding another complete 10 bolt rear axle since they came under so many vehicles. Then you could also ditch the 3.08 gear.

I'm going to save that link swath, thanks for sharing.

I put a Detroit TrueTrac in mine.

Just for the record... the G80 is NOT a limited slip differential.

The RPO code G80 was used for both the cars and the trucks but they are different animals.

The G80 in the cars were indeed a LSD.

The G80 in the trucks were a locking rear end and does not require LSD friction modifier to be added as it will mess with the clutch packs in the locker.


Just thought I would clear that up so there is no confusion while you are actively looking for a replacement or replacement parts.

Do you have Detroit TrueTrac part # for Tahoe PPV?

just throw a eaton detroit in there and you'll probably never have to work on it again, it's a couple bucks more than the g80 but worth it.

I have a complete axle out of an 11 PPV for sale if you're anywhere close to New Mexico

I'll have to go look through my receipts. It's been so long. Give me a bit and I'll go check.

That's exactly what I did, I dropped a Detroit True Trac in mine.

My YukonXL (non PPV) build sheet lists my G80 - H.D. RR AUTO LOCK DIFFERENTIAL if that helps anyone.

Man, I'm sorry I cant find the part # for the life of me.
I don't think there's any difference between a PPV and civilian model so you should be able to order one without any problems.

Thanks any way for the effort. I downloaded a copy of catalog from Eaton, there is a model # matching to 1/2 ton Chevy truck.

If you had a clunk when pressing the accelerator after coasting did this by any chance fix that??

While in the market for new Eaton TrueTrac differential, I found that Eaton out sourced that item. Eaton TrueTrac differential is made in Taiwan.

I've had them in two other vehicles as well as my Tahoe, roughly 13 years, g-d knows how many miles and I have had zero issues.

I went with Eaton after exploding rear diff. in my ‘95 2dr 4wd Tahoe (had just replaced clutch & was spinning out after stopping at the end of a dirt road & I hammered down while making a 90 degree turn on to the blacktop, when those tires hit the asphalt @ 4000+ RPM & both wheels hooking up it sounded like .50 caliber in back seat, L & R rear axle shafts shimmied 2’ out each side after I put her in 4 Hi & frontend pulled me about 1/2 mile before noticing the wheels were moving «—») that was in 2002 and haven’t had a day of trouble from my Eaton Posi-Locker
