2011 silverado rear end ?!? Help?
Looking to order my 4.10 ring and pinion and limited slip tomorrow, but I don't know which in particular I'm going to get... Has anyone else done a rear end on their 2010 or 2011 yet and If so what part numbers... I was told the rear end was changed up after 09

Not sure yet on what brand to get, I have heard good things about yukon and the trutrac combo, but I think that is a locker. Also I have thought about eaton posi and the Richmond combo ... But what is the bearing kit that I need? Or can they all be reused ... Did u install yours yourself?

I had one of my techs install mine. I used new OEM bearings and factory 373s that I bought at a good price. The Tru-Track and Eaton Posi are the most popular choices. What size tire and transmission do you have?

I'm pretty mechanically inclined to I'm gonna give it a shot... We have a few press machines, and plenty of indicators at my work so I don't have a problem there. Is the try trac a locker or limited slip, or is there both?
