From what I understand the 05 c6 diff shares the same diff as the c5. Is this true?
Will the c6 zo6 output shafts swap right into into the 05' diff?
Dealer swapped out the left rear axle seal. 2 days later it started leaking again. Now they want to tear into the rear end and r&r the diff as they think something is worn and shredding the seal. But of course they weren't sure. I'm guessing the bearings are worn. But I haven't had a chance to look, as they have it and they called me late. Anyways, while they're in there, I was gonna have em pop in the z06 output shafts to help strengthen it.
I think it would be far cheaper to leave the weaker output shafts to prolong (not prevent) this. My advice would be to replace the diff with a Z06 while it still has a core value.

It does bolt right up to an 05... If you go that route you need to make a new mount.. If you are going that route and interested let me know.. I make a bracket kit that allows you to bolt it in with no welding or drilling.

care to elaborate? i have an '05 manual and have wondered when it is going to blow up...been looking into installing a C5 z06 differential...and have heard you need a mounting plate to bolt it to the C6 cradle...is that what you are talking about that you fabricate?

That is correct.. It consists of 2 brackets and an isolater that allow you to bolt it into the c6 cradle with no welding or drilling required. You do however need to grind some of the lower fins off the diff regardless of how you adapt it. Other than that it is a bolt in package.
Works like a charm. I can vouch for it. Thanks Norm!
