Default GM Part Numbers - Differential Upgrade

I have a C5 diff in my 2005 car... Looking to do a rebuild on it and maybe slightly build it up some. I have a builder in mind so I'm looking for GM part numbers right now for some of the common upgrades that are done to these diffs. Online GM dealers feel free to give me a quote shipped to 78410...


I'll need all the minor parts that are necessary as well. For instance, I not only need to part number for the C6 Z06 pinion carrier but also the necessary bearings, shims, etc as well that make it work...

Upgrades I'm looking into:


**C6 Z06 left and right shaft with gear
**C6 Z06 HD clutches and spring
**C6 Z06 pinion carrier


Any help on compiling a list of these part numbers with the part numbers of the smaller odds and ends to make them work would be greatly appreciated and I think useful for future reference.

I just installed a 3.90 on mine from RKT - I would absolutely recommend contacting him with your requirements, chances are "turn-around" won't be all that much longer than having the work done locally, plus you'll know you're getting the job done right!
