Wanna swap my v6 differential to the v8

What are the parts that I need to put the 3.71 gears on my v6 camaro, from searching I believe its something like; a differential, some SS axles, new wheel bearing hubs.

But I would love if someone could confirm this for me and tell me kind of EXACTLY the pieces I need so i don't but the wrong things.

I have a 2014 1LT Camaro

Auto or Manual? Auto will require all those parts plus the gears themselves, Manual will just need the gears.

Only thing else you will need is axle nuts.

Gmpartsonline has all the parts, you will need to look through their catalog. I am doing a 1LE differential upgrade on my auto V6, total cost is going over $3,000.

Call ADM performance. Andy has a few new rpm built 3.91 rears in stock. Im sure he has a set of axles and possibly hubs. Im sure he would hook you up. Drive down and swap it out same day and head home again.

DSS can also supply all the parts you will need. The axels will be custom to fit rear outer spline. I'll bump the thread on, cause I have already this mod for a customer.

Here are the part numbers:

1LE/ZL1 Hubs - 22924741 (x2)
1LE Diff (3.91) - 22806794
1LE LH Axle - 22806795
1LE RH Axle - 22806796
1LE Axle Nut - 11611234 (x2)

Go to: http://www.gmpartsdirect.com put the part #'s in.

Might be worth seeing what other shops can do it for, might be cheaper that way.

Man you don't know how much you just helped me. Thank you good sir. I've read online that I might or might not need an SS driveshaft, I didn't see that in the list you gave me. Will I need one or not?

You will need a driveshaft, I don't believe your stock driveshaft will work.

Yes, you need the rear half of an SS drive shaft as well.
