Need a new H2 Front Differential and help changing it.

I have a perfect condition diff assembly and gear set, if someone needs it. I swapped my gears/diff for 4.56s & locker so I will offer the OEM ones up to someone for a good price.

Just a little info, you can blow up, grenade, destroy (however you want to say it) the front diff and the service 4wd light may never come on. The light comes on to inform the driver of electrical problems in the system, not a mechanical failure, but an electrical problem can lead to a mechanical failure. At 150.00 (especially usd, kidding) is a smoking deal. The short side stub shaft is worth more than that. I know of no service bulletins regarding failures, have seen a few fail though. One thing i will recommend is too much maintenance is not a bad thing, if you do it yourself its money well spent.

I was trying to sell mine for 400 bucks but apparently that was too much.

Tomp,

What year is it out of? What were you looking to get for it?

It is out of my 2006 and was very well taken care of. I swapped the OEM fluid at 10K mikes and put in Redline fluid. Was never abused and I will stand behind the complete diff assembly and gear set if you need the gears with it.

Please note that i's the diff, gears etc. and casing/housing not included. If you need a housing, I would suggest a new 2006 or newer and would not settle for a used housing.

Just PM me an offer worth my time and it's yours. This means to please make an offer decent enough to cover my time to pack and ship etc....

HUMTECH - -thanks for that point re: servic 4WD. Given we were on the rd. we pulled out the trusty manual and as you point out there was no real urgency in re: to the front diff.. just "you can clear the DIC and have it serviced". We added about a quart of gear fluid because paranoia has set in from the first blowout (good thing my Man used to replace front diff.s for a living!!). But I take difference with too much maintenance - it is too much $$$ coming out of my pocket for an expensive, high profile vehicle with less than 65k miles. To that point if there is also some electrical problem well just add on the bucks. But! The check engine light is a bit flakey and the clock resets when the gas is too low. I will be sure to bring that point up as well. But still .. if you all out there see a pattern with front diff. problems don't be a sucka.. call GM on it.
