    I've read there is a coating chemical process that is applied to them that helps them to break in better and I read on here the labor cost to have them installed is worth the money.

    Other than that, I am no help, and just didn't want to leave you hangin.

    this^ its not really hard if you have the tools, but its very time consuming to set it up right, and if you get it wrong youll ruin that set of gears before you realize you screwed up.

    Way to time consuming and easy to mess up to diy it

    Oh they install there!? I’m not too far from them. I’m assuming they charge for install?

    Nitro Rem Polished, that's what the chemical process is called for the gears.

    Yeah as mentioned before, it's not really a DIY thing. ECGS is the way to go, be it having them do all the install, or having them ship you an assembled 3rd member that you just drop in.

    I'm swapping to a rerouted t case skid, so my Mobtown non reroute one will be available soon. This will fit 2005-2018 trucks. It's their 3/16" steel and is powder coated black. I will clean it up and touch up with paint if the buyer wants. It's got some scrapes, but no serious dents or anything. Will pull it off on Monday and post pics. I'll be asking $180 for it vs. the $300 new. And no lead time!

    I will also be including brand new hardware with it.


    vvvv Actually my truck vvvv

    Anybody interested in an old rusted Ferd with a plow? Kind of a POS but it runs good. Good for local hauling and dump runs. Probably would not drive it across country
