If the SPID label is still in the glovebox post up a pic, and I can tell you what rear gear it came with.

Great thread. I love seeing what y’all are working with.

Here are a few current shots, and an old dually too.

The Yukon XL recently replaced a 2002 Yukon XL with 250k miles as the joint duty DD/tow vehicle. That and the Jeep trade off on light duty towing depending on where we are going and how much stuff we have to take.

The dually can now relieve the XL from some of the medium to heavy work, returning her to a life of leisure.

Just wet sanded and buffed out 1/2 of the 1999 Haulmark enclosed 24’ trailer. Need to finish that, do the interior and I have some chrome wheels coming.

Talking

2006 Ridgeline V6 Honda does fine for me, hauling my baby home from a 6 hour return trip back home.

I know it is not your heavy duty dully etc... but I have used it many times and does the trick for me.
