| 249 Drivetrain is running a steal of a deal for 4.88s installed for $650 for this month.
http://houston.craigslist.org/pts/1637219552.html
I'm thinking about trying to catch this sale but I wasn't sure if 4.88s or 5.13s would be better for 35s (got my eye on 315/75R16 KM2s). Opinions? |

| okay, I'll drop them a line and hopefully if I sound pathetic enough they'll let me have the 5.13 for the same price. |

| well, I brought it up with the wife and she didn't quite know all of the plans I had for the JK before TSJM. She started asking questions and let's just say long story short, I won't be needing the gears since I won't be running 35s. Looks like I'm in the market for 32s or 33s.

G, how much do you charge parts & labor? |
i charge 250 per axle labor..........i give you the opportunity to get the best deal you can on whatever gears /install kits you wish......
alan uses yukon gears and never uses install kits........i kind of like new ring gear bolts, crush sleves, and pinion nuts in the rearends i setup
edit..........northridge 4x4 sells both gear sets and install kits as a package for 499 with free shipping........_________________ ITS HIP TO BE SQUARE  [embed-flash(width,height)] |
