Well i talked to my mechanic this morning about the gears and he said the 8.5 410s wouldnt fit in my housing! I was just wondering if he really knows his stuff?

8.5 and 8.6 gears are the same. He sounds full of it. The only way the gears wont fit is if they are lower than 2.76, or higher than like 5.10 or something. IMO, find a buddy that does know what he is doing. And do it your self.Originally Posted by alabamachevy15
