Gear install Charlotte NC area
Anyone in the area have Jeep re-geared? Recommend a shop to handle? Feel like you got a good deal and pleased with results? Also what year ad model do you have? I have 2012 Rubi and want to be sure the lockers will not be an issue.
Thanks

i did not do a gear install, well sort of. I had a Detroit TruTrac installed in rear axle and had 4Wheelparts in Charlotte install it. I felt they have done many a gear install on Jeep's, so they should know what they are doing?
I was surprised they could not enlarge the ring bolt hole with the drill bits they had so they sent to a machine shop. So, I guess this was there first TruTrac install?
As to price, I new they would be higher than others, but I wanted some piece of mind that they work on a lot of Jeeps and new what they where doing.
I, went with a no name shop on my 95' Bronco gear install to save money and lost the rear gears. Cost me even more in the long run! Well, almost 2 years now with no problems.
