Default Differential Gear Manufacturers?

Who makes diff gears for the C5? I'm only seeing Motive Gear as an option but have seen enough horror stories already to be completely scared off from that brand. Does Richmond or Dana or any of the legit companies make gears for these diffs?

Motive is the only company that makes gears for our cars, whatever "brand" you buy you will still be getting motive gears, just find the cheapest brand you can find cause it will still be motive gears

I used platinum performance gearset off of ebay they were the cheapest I could find they're just re boxed motives, I've had 3.73 and now 4.10's with no issues you just need someone that can set them up correctly
