need help finding differential parts
Diff started making noise so i ordered c6Z06 shafts and clutches.
Opened the posi and this is what i got.
I need 2 spider gears. Both bearings and races. And the posi housing or carrier. I dont know what to call it.

2020 Corvette of the Year Finalist (performance mods)
C5 of Year Winner (performance mods) 2019
were you looking to beef it up or just get the car back on the road?... if you just need to get it going you might be better off buying a used diff, they are pretty cheap... or if you want to build it I would recommend RPM or Rick at RKT56

Call RICK and see what he has. If he doesn't have new parts, he will most likely have spares or tell you where you can find some..

SO,,,, It looks like you were the victim of a broken Beleview Spring for the clutch pack. When they fracture into multiple pieces that is what happens.

The C6 Bellview springs are MUCH better than the OEM C5 springs.
With NEW clutch packs that limited slip clutch will be NICE AND TIGHT! You will for sure need a Hydraulic Press to get that cross pin back in.
Speaking of that Cross Pin. They have been known to break in some applications. I up-graded to a DTE Pin. Its harder and has less cut out.

Called HPE or who bought out DTE
talked to rhonda told her thanks for shipping the diff/trans brace and asked her about the cross pin. She called me back and said they or dte never made a upgrade cross shaft. Could it be rpm or othere manufacturer?
