What parts will I need?
I thought there were some threads on here but I cant seem to find them. Anyhow, I am getting a 5'' lift and 35'' tires here soon for my truck. I planned on going with 4.56 gears. But I dont know exactly what parts I need. I was curious if someone wouldnt mind writing a list of what all I need to do the gear swap. I mean every last little part, I dont want to get to changing them and not have something. Thank you in advance!

Other than the gears and new ring gear bolts and new crush sleeve you really don't need anything other than a tube of RTV. and some loctite, red and blue. good idea to use anti seize also. You'll need a tube of gear marking compound and brush.
Change the pinion seal while you're at it.
My personal preference was for a Ratech solid spacer (~$17) rather than the crush sleeve.
This is assuming you have or have access to the tools you'll need.

While you're in the front replace the intermediate shaft bearing. I didn't even think about when I got mine done and had to run all over trying to find one. I ended up having to go to the dealer to get it. The new one is like a plastic type deal and threw me for a loop lol.
