Dorman - OE Solutions Differential Lock Sensor P/N:600-251
Dorman 600-211 front differential housing for the 2007-2020 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 and other vehicles encloses the front differential's internal components. It replaces an original housing that has failed from impact, normal wear, insufficient lubrication or damaged internal components.
Impact damage, a fluid leak at the front axle, or a whine or clunk from that axle in normal driving can mean the housing has failed. These signs alone do not prove the housing is the problem, since a worn axle seal can also leak.
Vehicles it fits include the 2007-2020 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, the 2007-2020 GMC Sierra 1500 and the 2007-2020 Chevrolet Tahoe. The 2007-2020 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 takes one.
