I was changing out the diff fluid on my 05 and there was a G80 diff installed, which was not on the build sheet. I guess that is a good thing. I havent really tested it. Does this diff come in other RPOs as a packaged item, or did the previous owner add it?

Just curious, I'm no mechanic, but how can you tell it's a G80 just by looking with the cover off? The little spider gears inside?

I had the cover off and it had the spinning barrel that triggers the lever which locks in the other axle.
