Default C6 Diff: 2005 to 2006 and Up Conversion

I know there are many threads on here about converting, and am pretty familiar with them and am aware that I would need to swap the tail-shaft housing on the trans in order to do this.

My real question is will the internals of my built 2005 diff (Quaiffe and 4.10 gears) be transferable to the 2006 and later diff housing?

Any help or info here would be appreciated!

Thanks!

I know C6Z diff components have been put in a C5 case, so they more than likely would. Call up Rick at RKT Performance. He will be able to give you a definitive answer your question. http://rktperformance.com/

Yes! I cracked my 05 dif and bought a 2010 case from gmparts house, Cartek took my internals and put them in that case and i used the adapter from RPM because i have the a4, i think you just need to change a bolt from zip
