How to remove rear roters 2004 2500hd gmc 4x4

yes
the housings will be the same
clue here --if the diff center comes into the housing from the front not a problem
if it comes in from the rear ( tin cover removed ) replace the complete housing as you will have to have expertise in resetting the bearing pre-loads for the diff center bearings

if it is the same bolt pattern in a banjo housing
(fit in from the drive shaft end not salisbury type-- remove cover and pull crown wheel out from the rear) it will fit
items to consider are axle spline size and numbers and diff ratios
if the ratios are not the same , the swap will cause very early drive line failures

2 wheel drive check dif numbers or 4x4 if 4x4 check dif numbers 4x4 must be the same numbers

hope this helps

you will have to remove the transmission to replace the seal.

pull the caliper mounting bolts,hang it from a clothes hanger,compress the piston to make room for the new pads,put every thing back like it was, check brake fluid. (open bleader on caliper when compressing piston.)

SEAL COULD BE LEAKING CAUSE YOU DIDNT LUBRICATE THE SEAL LIPS WITH PETROLEUM JELLY TO HELP THE THE SEAL LIP SEAL OR YOU DAMAGE THE SEAL WHILE DRIVING IT IN.AXLE FLANGE NUTS TORQUE IS 58 FT LBS THE AXLE HUB NUT TORQUE IS 177 FT LBS.

sounds like caliper is getting hung up and not releasing. did you lube the guides for the pads. or slide pines could be stuck. or e-brake cable for that side is pinched causing it to hang up.

HE IS WRONG!! But only use 4x4 when absolutely needed.. and stop to shift ..both in and out of 4X4.. ..

... have the rear end fluid changed ASAP...
