Rear End Help! Posi?

[ERAMOS08]

SUP FELLAS!

 

GUYS I HAVE A 06 SINGLE CAB SHORT BED LT SILVERADO THAT CAME WITH A 5.3L. I KNOW NOTHING ABOUT REAR ENDS. ALL I KNOW IS THAT IT HAS DRUMS AND WHEN I NAIL THE GAS ONLY ONE TIRE(RIGHT) BURNS OUT.

 

I HAVE 3 QUESTIONS TO ASK.

 

1. WHAT ARE THE SPECS ON MY REAREND? GEARING, SIZE, ETC.

2. AND WHAT DO I NEED TO SPIN BOTH TIRES? POSI, LOCKER(WHAT EVER THAT IS)

3 WHAT IS NEEDED TO CONVERT TO DISC BRAKES? IS THEIR A BIG DEAL BTWN THEM?

 

THANKS

ANY INPUT WOULD BE GREAT!

Chances are you have 3:73 gears out back with a 10 bolt equipped with the bobo drum brake setup. Depending on what your goals are for the truck kinda depends on gearing. IMO it would just be easier to find a rear differential with the gears you want in it and disc brakes already and swap it out. A locking diff would allow you to light up both tires. Disc brakes look better, are easier to change and maintain than drums too.
