My 5.3 extended cab shoetbed has 3.42 with a peg leg and I do have the tow package. some one changed the hitch from the round type to the square type. guess they wanted a heavy duty one.

GU6=3.42
GT4=3.73
GT5=4.10
These RPO's are always what I went by.

What are u callin factory lockers, the G80? Or is there a better factory diff I don't know about?

I know mine does.
I searched out my truck, for other options tho.
G80, trailer pkg, & 3.42 off dealer lot.
