Save your pennies, then, buddy. You're better off without them, some would argue. You don't have a leveling compressor or error messages? Maybe the previous owner already changed it over?
No error messages. I haven't had a light on the dash yet

G80 means posi correct?


"posi" yes. A lot of technicalities and opinions here. It's the Eaton G80 locker. It's a locking limited slip differential. A few good youtubes of how it works....and a few fun ones of how it doesn't, lol.

Wait was the bottom or top one the factory one?
Bottom. That's the ZW7 factory shock. Above is the KYB Excel, which, I think--sucked ass. I put them together to show the size difference. KYB still had the packing strap on it tho, so it's a little longer. There was nothing wrong with the stock shock, just wanted to change it. I weigh 240 and I couldn't compress it--even with all of my weight on it. Sold them for $50. Those shocks only came on the rear, not in the front.
