Had guy send rpo code pic, vin pic. Crossed referenced those, and looked up set of numbers on gear ring.
This is interesting to me personally. I had a suspicion the Saab had the same axle as the SS. Looks like it's at least larger than the standard since the vehicle was setup with a more sporty suspension even in the lesser engine. This makes sense considering Saab's marketing at the time, think Audi.
We just need a confirm from Navigator to see if Bravada's offer an 8.6 axle in stock 4.2L trim. I wonder if that would carry to the Buick's as well. And why wasn't this the standard in the Envoy and Trailblazer is curious.
Once lifted 03 Trailblazer on 35's, gave it up to travel the USA with my family.
