Yes, most definitely.

I get some BG-brand stuff, it comes in a plastic tube and costs about $10.

To add to that, I used two tubes in my DANA 60.

Whatever you get, be sure to read about the recommended ratio on the back of
the product. A DANA 60 takes something like 3/4 of a gallon of 90W gear oil.

EDIT: You should check in your Owner's Manual (or Haynes/Chilton) on the
capacity of your axle; my recollection of 3/4 gallon may have also included the
T18 transmission....

The people there are not the greatest when it comes to helping with my truck. They are all GM experts for some reason.

I have the C6, I will look into the Chilton/Haynes manuals while I'm at Autozone.
Thanks for giving me a general idea of what I need, and about how much I should be spending.

Is there any way to get the Pinion oil seal? Or does it come in a set with bearings, washers, and all that other stuff.

Prices are too high, and the people are morons.

At mine, the prices are the same and the people are better than the zone.
Must be store by store.
Allot of the stuff from O'Reillys has a life time warranty too.
