No more Rear End

i Blew my rear end going WOT over a bump i didnt see my shakles are jacked and my spider gear in my diff was shattered and shot out my diff along with half of the carrier.....so bassicly what im asking is what do i do now? i dont want to spend alot but then again i dont want this to happen again....but so far i got a quote ffrom the dealership i work at and they gave me a total of 1600$$ including labor parts and everything from Coast Drive Lines i figure if its gonna be around that price i might as well do it right and not go back to the stock s**t

Not bad. You could also have a used axle installed at your own store for about $1000....it's an easy choice.

from the figuring I have been doing lately its going to be around 700-750 to get mine rebuilt and thats with gears trutrac and rebuild kit.

...plus labor

Yeah I got a buddy who is a certified mechanic...

Must be a good buddy. LOL

Wish I had friends that needed work....or friends at all. Hahahaha

i just had fort worth gear and axle install mine they charged 225 i have 875 total in my rebuilt tru trac gears and install kit

lol u have no friends?


well im going with an Eaton POSI LSD 3:73 and they got me down to an even lower price so im looking at paying about a grand for everything

Even better price.

i just put 3.90 and a true trac in mine....it wasnt too bad...just time consuming....dont be scared to do it yourself, just take your time and do it right.

ive never touched my diff only to put fluid in it or change the gasket soo i dont think it would be that easy to do my self plus its 8 hours of labor and they are only charging me 200$$

WOW...8 hrs, and i thought i was slow!!!

That's flat rate pay system for you. 8 sounds a little high....even for a complete overhaul.

i thought it was a pretty damn good deal

its not a bad deal...8 hrs is a long time for rearend work though

It's book time (flat rate) not actual time. My customer pay labor time guide shows 7.7 hours for a complete overhaul so 8 is not that far off.

i found a complete rebuilt rear end from a truck dismantle place in LA and its got brand new inerds with 3:73 and a posi LSD
