but on seals and bearings, if you have a part number you can contact local bearing supply vendors or powertrain shops and see if they have the bearings or seals.
I switched my imp to 373s and an eaton posi 6 years ago and did not get a single part from the dealer except the LS additive and the abs reluctor (one of the last ones in stock lol).
GM dealers stock very little these day. Especially model specific parts like the ZL1 differential bits. My dealer doesn't even stock the bolts for the brake calipers.
