it was 700$ in the gears and a pair of master install kits (all Superior A&G stuff), and like 650$ for my install. I was originally quoted 600 on labor, but for some reason there was a particular bolt that is supposed to come with both install kits... well it only came with my front kit. I opted to pay the guy an extra 50$ to fab me one so i wouldnt have to wait for a new to get shipped. Luckily for me he owned a fab shop as well and was willing to do that for me.
Gonna do my fluid change tomorrow since ive got about 550 miles of break in now. full synthetic of course 
O, and i definately feel the power difference in the dirt. a slight tap tap gets me up and over where with those puny 3.73s it was almost a full foot to the floor to get over.
This is totally off subject but check this out... there happens to be a fab shop thats about an hour from where i live that recently in the past 6 months has started producing KJ steel front and rear bumpers... ive talked to the owner/foreman about building me some for my KK and he seemed very interested to do so. He seemed to think that there is practically no demand for them so he doesnt think hell put them into production, but after a bit of a talk ha said that depending on how big the difference in mounting to the KK as opposed to the KJ that he may consider taking some orders on a few and determine if he may actually change his mind about producing them. Best part about it all, is hes quoting like 900-1K$ for BOTH front and rear high clearnace bumpers! hopfully i can get out to see him here in the next couple of weeks. Not sure how long til i actually make the investment, but i would like to go ahead and let him take deminsions so he can go ahead and work out what he needs to do / how much i need to pay him to do that. The KJ one he builds is pretty basic, so i was thinking of getting him to put a small stinger or maybe just a hoop over the winch mount like the ARB KJ bumper has.
Ill keep you guys posted on this matter because it may kind turn into one of those kinda things where if i could possibly gather some orders for him, we can get this thing in full production or at least get a few of these bad boys for those who would like them
