Hey, i have a 2000 chevy 1500 2WD, does anyone know if it is an open differential or limited slip, my truck is a LT2.

Thanks in advance

I dont know. Dealers in different regions order different options. I would research the VIN and get a build sheet from the dealer. They are extremely helpful when replacing parts and will be great for if and when you sell the truck.

The axle tube

get a real build sheet, code tags won't help much a s far as lay mens terms.

are you planning to change the gears too? Seems like if you are, leave that to a professional. It is fairly complicated to change gears and the average D.I.Y.er can not do it. You have to set the right pinion depth, backlash, and you'll need a special run out meter.

alright ill take a look at it tmr morning.

I am not planning on changing gears i just want to put in a limited slip unless it already has it.

Where would i get a build sheet at? online? chevy dealer?

Thanks for your help
