OP you only asked about the rear. A-master is right on the thick cut for the front gears.

Mabe 4x2. If so, then this is anything you need for that rear:

when i bought them a few years back there was only 2 companies making them yukon and another company. My yukons came with instructions to grind the pin to fit it in the carrier, long story short this did not work, caused alot of trouble, ended up braking the carrier and bending the pinion, after that I got the other brand which came with instructions to grind the ring gear for fitment of the pin, never had a problem.

Ringandpinion.com

I have been getting all of my diff parts from there. They are very knowledgeable if you talk to them on the phone and their website is setup nicely to find the parts that will work for you.

Okay thanks, and for you guys who are currently running 4.88's. How do you like them while running 35's? Anyone have 33's with 4.88's?

4.88s are gonna be to much for those tires. I have 4.10's on 33's and would be more than willing to run 35's with the 4.10's.... The way it should go is 4.56's for 35's and 4.88's for anything bigger. But if you plan on going over 37's and going offroad you can plan on rebuilding often.
