    I was wondering if any of you folks had experience in installing ring/pinions in axles. Doing a gear swap in the near future and am blown away at the cost of a shop doing it. Beer and pizza on the house! :thumbup:

    sockets rachets wrenches hammer to knock the old pinion out breaker bar something to hold the pinion when you put the new one in to tighten the pinion bolt.... torque wrench and i found a how to on it.... http://www.ehow.com/how_2159877_set-up-differential.html
    i know it looks really hard but once you get into it it's really simple..... the first time it will probably take you a couple of hours....
    did a little more searching and found this how to on frf.....
