Thanks, I just gave them a call. 1425 for gears not to bad. But will take 1 week. Guess I will have to get a rental.

I will give that a try tomorrow. I talked to a young guy by the sound of his voice. He wasn't very nice either. It was like he didn't want to take my call.

Make the extra 1hr45min drive up to Fort Wayne and get it done in a day for $350 both axles. That's what I paid.

Hell, I would drive 10 hours to get it done $350 for both. What is the name of that shop???

Louisville 4 wheel drive quoted me $2,200. I asked them why they were so high compared to 4 wheel parts. And he replied " we do better work" for that price I could almost get gears and lockers. I will not be going there that's for sure.

hahaha they do better work....shit i would have laughed in their faces.....I will be going to the guy that dburgette has said. 350 for both axles is a sweet deal plus the guy works for dana and guarantees his work

that shop and 4 wheel parts are both smoking

What is the name of that shop? Or is just some guy working out of his garage? Would like to get this done next week or two at the latest.

I talked to Topper yesterday. Next weekend he is doing a set of gears for a guy from INDY.

Give me a PM and I will send you his number.
