Default Question about my drivetrain
I need a new trans and diff on my 02 c5 z06. I have a spare c6 torque tube and transmission laying around at the house as well as a built c5 diff. Question: i know the torque tube and trans can be swapped but can i bolt my c5 diff to a c6 2005 transmission?

I believe you would also need a C6 cradle in order to fit the C6's transmission and torque tube.

Technically the diff is the only thing that touches the craddle. If im running a c5 diff why would one need a c6 craddle?
