AAM OEM Gear
American Axle & Manufacturing (OEM) ring and pinion sets are uniquely designed to match the requirements the OEM Ring & Pinion designated for your specific vehicle. All performance factors for the size and weight of the specific vehicle must be taken into account. Only original equipment quality components are guaranteed to meet the same specifications as the parts they replace. AAM components mean performance to the vehicle manufacturer's standards. The combination of materials, heat treating, and cut geometry allow for a gear set that has ten times the life of a non-OEM ring and pinion gear set.
Detroit Truetrac Posi LSD
The Truetrac operates as a standard or open differential under normal driving conditions, allowing one wheel to spin faster or slower as necessary. When a wheel encounters a loss of traction or the terrain changes, the gear separation forces take effect and transfer torque to the high-traction wheel. The helical-shaped gears mesh with increasing force until wheel spin is slowed or completely stopped. When the vehicle exits the low traction situation, the differential resumes normal operation. Operation of the Truetrac is smooth, quiet and automatic. The unit will engage without any driver knowledge or action required. It also has no wearable parts and requires no maintenance, meaning less time in the garage and more on the road.
Recommended oil is standard 80/90 weight (non-synthetic) (no additives).
