    Interesting day...had to glove my lights to pass inspection:thumbsup:o_O
    I told my alignment guy just to set my toe as I just changed out my tie rods and now I'm rubbing in reverse:annoyed:
    I sold my old rear bumper and got the car stuck in the yard trying to put the trailer back. Knock off maxxtracks worked like a charm.

    Has any one re-geared? If so, would you mind answering a few questions:
    1) how big of a difference did it make
    2) What shop did you go to
    3) How much did they run?

    Thanks in advance

    Unfortunately, I do need to haul something. Otherwise, I wouldn't have bothered.

    One answer for the shop East Coast Gear Supply can't beat what you get for the money from them.

    Def use ECGS. Order a complete 3rd member and do the install yourself.

    If you order from ECGS it will be assembled, it's just drain, unbolt the 3rd member, install the new one, refill. Super easy.

    It really is very easy. If you brought the assembled third member over to my place, we could have it installed in about an hour. It's that easy. I've had mine out before and fully disassembled to install my locker so it's not foreign to me.

    A thing or two...
    1) How big the difference is depends on how badly under geared you are.

    2) East Coast Gear Supply is the go to source. Get assembled 3rd members, and they just drop in. I installed mine myself in a few hours.

    3) Pricing is on ECGS' website.

    When?

    Tonight could work but it might be tough for some to make it. What's the preference?

    I'm down for both or either, but I'm bored as shit tonight. If you are just trying to get out of the house I'll come meet you for beers.
