Default Question about 4.88 gears

What would be the best place to get 4.88 gears for my X model at? I'm buying from a sponser on here too. Also, is there anyone on here that put in there own gears?

Can't speak toward price, but as far as service goes, you'd be hard-pressed to find a better vendor than Northridge 4x4... check them out here.

Your probably talking $600-$700 for the gears... Northridge is a good source for your purchase...

As far as install, if you have someone do it, I'd say it'll be around $800-$900 for the labor. If you haven't done gears before, I wouldn't recommend it. A good gear install is well worth the money spent

The only person I respect at the moment is David at Northridge. If you want best customer service go to him. And also we should all support him for all is hard work. He even answers his phone on the Sundays to help us out and will give you the right advise.
