I got a price from someone cant remeber I will have to look through my notes for under 800 shipped front and rearincluding spacer

Ok I remember it was a guy on ebay I called him

 

I guess I am one of the few who are staying with stock tire size and the previous model G56.

 

I was looking at the service manual last night for the transmission. It looks like there is another gear that would have to be changed as well when you change 6th gear. May get more costly than you think for the trans option. I would love to come up with a cost effective way to do a gear change too.

 

was this for AAM gears or yukon gears?

 

i saw aams site,it showed 3.42s for $370 but what is a fair price to pay for install?

 

So any more word on the G56 6th gear swap?? Has anyone made the leap of faith and actually done it? Costs?

 

nobody has done it yet, I want to spend money on power right now so I wont be doing it anytime soon.....
I posted what the parts cost...I am 90% sure that is all thats needed to do the swap...but I could be wrong

you should do it!!!!!!

 

53 ******,

Did you happen to get the part numbers from the dealer??? I'd love to price out those parts up here in Alberta.

Thanks

 

No part numbers...but all I did was call the parts guy and tell them what I was doing....he looked it up and told me the prices....He also told me he would print me a exploded parts diagram so I can see what else may be needed????? I was not looking to hard when I called I was just checking to see the prices....I have a lot of other mods I would do before this one...I am actually really happy with my gearing since I put 315's on...but to drop a few hundred more at cruise would be nice.....

 

so I went to the dealer ship to get the parts diagram...I am not to sure if this can be done and still be cost effective it might be alot cheaper with better RPM drop from changing the axle gears...the dealer could not get me part numbers for the higher geared trans.....both part numbers where the same for some reason....06-08
since I know how to do axle gearing swaps I know this will be the cheaper route for me if I ever decide to do something..

 

thats what i was thinking would be the case

i wonder if they will ever come out with a 7 spd that has two overdrives? something like .79 and .60
