Fitment Notes

  • Fits GM 7.5" and 7.625" 10-bolt rear differential with 28-spline axles and 3.23 and numerically higher gear ratios (Series 3 carrier) only
  • Does not fit 2-Series carriers (2.73 and numerically lower ratios) - verify your existing gear ratio before ordering
  • Does not fit 26-spline axle applications - a separate unit (YDGGM7.5-3-26-SM) is required for 26-spline axles
  • Does not fit GM 8.5" or 8.6" 10-bolt differentials - those require a different carrier entirely
  • Synthetic gear oil is not recommended - use high-grade non-synthetic GL-5 gear oil with Yukon LSD additive (part OILADD) for proper clutch break-in and long-term smooth operation

Features

  • Yukon Dura Grip clutch-style limited slip differential providing smooth yet aggressive traction across a wide range of terrains and driving conditions
  • High-strength nodular iron case for superior rigidity and durability compared to standard open carriers
  • Forged 4320 chromoly spider gears machined for maximum tooth strength - significantly stronger than cast alternatives
  • Raybestos composite clutch pack design delivers consistent, long-lasting lockup with smooth engagement - not overly aggressive for street use
  • 4-spring preload design for reliable and consistent clutch engagement under varying load conditions
  • Fully rebuildable design - clutch packs and internals can be replaced without purchasing a new unit, extending service life
  • Assembled in the USA for quality control and consistency
  • Direct drop-in replacement for GM 7.5"/7.625" 10-bolt 28-spline Series 3 carrier applications

Product Description

The Yukon YDGGM7.5-3-28-SM Dura Grip is a high-performance clutch-type limited slip differential built for the GM 7.5" and 7.625" 10-bolt rear axle with 28-spline axles and 3.23-and-up gear ratios. Designed as a direct replacement for the open carrier in F-body Camaros and Firebirds, S10/S15 trucks, Blazers, Astros, Caprices, and a wide range of other GM rear-wheel and all-wheel drive platforms, the Dura Grip delivers meaningful traction improvement over an open differential without the harshness of a full locker. Whether the build is a street performance car, a light off-road truck, or a daily driver looking for better wet-weather traction, this unit provides the right balance of lockup and drivability.

At the core of the Dura Grip are forged 4320 chromoly spider gears and a Raybestos composite clutch pack housed in a high-strength nodular iron case. The 4-spring preload design ensures consistent clutch engagement across a wide range of driving inputs, while the composite clutches provide smooth, progressive lockup rather than the sudden bite of cheaper clutch-style units. Unlike disposable limited slip differentials, the Dura Grip is fully rebuildable - clutch packs can be replaced when worn, making this a long-term investment rather than a consumable.

Before installing, confirm your GM 7.5"/7.625" axle uses 28-spline axle shafts and a Series 3 carrier (3.23 and numerically higher ratios). Synthetic gear oil is not recommended - use a high-grade non-synthetic GL-5 gear oil combined with Yukon LSD additive (part OILADD) to ensure proper clutch seating and smooth long-term operation. Carrier bearings are sold separately and should be replaced during installation for best results.
