What front differential will work in my AWD 96 Blazer, GT4 code? Will a 4x4 front differential work with a manual cable to the actuator?

We only recommend direct fit parts. NOTE: You MUST have the same gear ratio as the rear differential.

GT4 code (which indicates a 3.73 rear axle ratio), so here are a list of doner vehicles to get the front differential from

1995-1997 Chevrolet Blazer AWD or 4x4 (S10 platform) with a 3.73 gear ratio.
1995-1997 GMC Jimmy AWD or 4x4 with a 3.73 gear ratio.
1995-1997 Chevrolet S10 4x4 pickup with a 3.73 gear ratio.
1995-1997 GMC Sonoma 4x4 pickup with a 3.73 gear ratio.

Let us know if you need anything else.
