looking to get 4:56 gears, question..

This is not the first I have seen this but when I look up the gear set on randys site, it oonly list 2004 - 2006 SSR's.. Are the the same for the 2003?
GM 8.6 - 10 bolt cover with 8.5 ring gear. Hs 30 spline c/clip axles. Differential is found in 99 on up trucks, and will always have disc brakes.


Would these in Summit Racing be the correct ones

2003 is the same as 2004 through 2006.

You can order them directly from Strange. They're updating their pricing so give 'em a call and see if it's any better than Summit.
