I'm not completely familiar with their entire product line, but it wouldn't surprise me any. Eaton is not shy with their engineering or marketing

I don't know where you're located, but in my prior Suburban shopping sprees, I have seldom come across one that didn't have the G80 in it. That is here in SLC, Utah, so maybe it is a more commonly selected option due to snow and what-not. But I don't think you'll have a hard time finding one.

Good luck!

I wanted thank you guys for all your help. I wound up buying a double cab, 4x4, Tacoma with the rear e-locker. I know that's not even close to a Suburban but I like both of them. I've owned Toyota 4runners, Land Cruisers and Tahoes and Suburbans and I think GM quality is right there with Toyota.

Thanks again.......10ga

Where do I look to see if it has it?

Thanks for the help
