I can not find the best way to change out a diff on a c5. Anyone have a link that works and has pic and good right up? And some say they can slide it out the back not taking the trans or Tork tub out anyone do it that way?

I kept my torque tube in and pulled my trans to put in a stall converter. It's a good time to do that while it's apart. I got a remanufactured 2500 stall for $130 with a 12k mile warranty.
Here is a good write up on removing the diff.

Did that stall work very well and where did you get it?

It's not a big jump from the stock one, I just put it in last weekend and have about 30miles on it so far
