Re: 387k tahoe gets new diff

Is your hoe a full time auto unit? The front diffs live and die by routine service on the full auto units. You can draw out the 2x4 units a little on fluid changes though. I had co-worker I had to put one in an escalade that looked even worse at 105k because he never changed the fluid.

Mine does have an auto 4x4 option but I leave it in 2x4 if I'm not in ice or snow I got the truck at 369k so I dont know how well it had been serviced in the past

You're good to go now, fresh fluid every 75-100k, if it lives that long and you're golden!
