I would highly recommend having a good 4x4 shop do the ring and pinion install. Setting up gears correctly takes a good bit of know-how and practice, not to mention very precise measuring. If you're planning on doing several more re-gears down the road it's probably cost-effective to get some expert assistance, buy the necessary tools, and learn how to do it yourself. But, if this is a one-off, save yourself some headache and money and have a good shop do it. |

I wasnt paying attention, lucky install for you will be a lot cheaper you could probably get it done for $200, I got my DL installed for $175

where do y'all find these places for so cheap. It calls for 5.7 labor hours to replace the gears and that doesn't even include the whole install kit. |

when I was calling around for my DL install they were all saying 6 hours for an install which would be removing the gears and installing them again, so mosy places will charge you for 6 hours, but I got a good deal bc he also did my steering rack, DTT and I just made friends with him so he's a little more willing to haggle with me try haggling a little they will usually come down |
