    What gear ratio are you going with @stronghammer

    I can lift stuff, I’d be down to help if you need it and I’m free. Could be a good learning experience.

    also, just went ahead and called them at ECGS. the plan is to do the 5 gallon bucket thing, they said that's best and just pack the shit out of it. they send the labels and I use their shipping account. they build everything up and then send it back to me boom and done.

    I used buckets with mine and their shipping labels because they can get a cheaper rate.
    Make sure you drain all the oil out and wrap them in plastic bags the shippers freak out when oil seeps out of a package.
    Like Tanner said strip down the front diff, all the mounting points and jack shaft off it and it will be about the size of a basket ball.
