Dorman - OE Solutions Differential Carrier P/N:697-909
Hard use and poor lubrication can wear out a differential, and the Dorman OE Solutions Differential Carrier 697-393 is an all-new open front differential carrier assembly designed to replace a worn unit. It fits many vehicles, among them the 2003-2005 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, 2001-2013 GMC Sierra 1500 and 2001-2014 GMC Yukon. See the "Vehicles it fits" section for the full list and engine details.
An open differential lets the wheels on the axle turn at different speeds through corners while it passes drive torque to both sides. If a worn carrier, spider gears or pins are the cause of noise or play in the front differential, this assembly replaces them as one unit. Follow the vehicle service information for setup, gear oil and torque specifications during installation.
