right on, easy with the break in, and have fun lighting them up. One of the best improvements by far

It's a great mod, ain't it? The break in is very important, baby those gears for the first 300 miles, and between 300 and the fluid change and inspection at 500, you to slowly start opening them up a bit, but don't get crazy. Those things need to heat and cool and set properly. Randy's Ring and Pinion has a great guide on their site for breakin' in gears.

cant give you one on gears alone. but after some extra money added due to needing new ball joints, the gear swap, lsd, u-joints, ball joints, just ALL parts and labor ran me about $1800
