How to remove and install a front differential in a Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon?

Disconnect the cable from the negative terminal of the battery. Loosen the front wheel lug nuts, raise the front of the vehicle and support it securely on jackstands. Remove the under-vehicle splash shield. Drain the front differential lubricant. Disconnect the front driveshaft from the front differential companion flange. Wrap tape around the bearing caps so they don't fall off. Support the driveshaft with a length of wire or rope so it doesn't hang. Remove the front driveaxles. Disconnect the electrical connector from the front axle actuator motor. Disconnect the breather tube from the differential housing. Place a jack beneath the differential carrier. Unbolt the carrier-to-frame brackets, removing the bolts to the carrier and the bolts securing the two brackets to the frame. Carefully lower the differential, using a chain or straps to secure the differential to the jack. Installation is the reverse of the removal procedure. Tighten all fasteners to the proper torque values. Tighten the wheel lug nuts to the specific torque. Refill the front differential with the proper lubricant.

Chevrolet Colorado Differential

Differentials are employed in Chevrolet Colorado as one of the factors of the drive train system necessary in providing the capacity to turn while providing grip on surfaces. These differentials help split the power produced by the engine to the wheel which have the task of moving over icy or rough terrains. The bevel gearset differentials in classical rear-wheel-drive layouts help maintain the average linear speed of the wheels during a turn or, in other words, these differentials compensate the difference of speeds of the wheels in case of turning so as not to cause such negative phenomena that affect, for example, tires or the car's power train. Although conventional units may decrease the amount of grip in poor going, modern cars may employ active differentials to enhance torque split and handling. Still, they are preferred by enthusiasts for drifting, as they enable that controlled slippage of the wheels. In the Chevrolet Colorado segment you can get a reliable series of spare parts for differentials, axes, driveshafts and others needed for the premier performance of the car.

Each OEM Chevrolet Colorado Differential we offer is competitively priced and comes with the assurance of the manufacturer's warranty for the part. Furthermore, we guarantee the speedy delivery of your orders right to your doorstep. Our hassle-free return policy is also in place for your peace of mind.
