Default What rear is in a full size van?

I noticed that there are some 6 lug GM 2500 full size vans out there. Does anybody know what rear ends these come with? I can't imagine they would put a freakin' 8.6" in them.

Like a newer one. I'm not too hip on the fullsize van scene, so I don't know what years. I've seen full size utility vans, with no windows with 6 lugs and 2500 on the side. I'm going to guess and say 2001-up.

Nah uh...I thoght of it first.

That's what I thought they would be. Looks like I'm going to have to crawl under some in parking lots and take some measurements.
