    Looks good, thanks for adjusting. Maybe want to add that some seeping is normal and that wiping clean the area after you leave, or when you get home, is a good idea. Other than that looks good.

    I had some seeping, but after wiping away and monitoring it was ok. When they checked it out while flushing the rear diff fluid, they said all looked good.

    For those of you who are getting the ECGS bushing installed during the gear install process, MAKE SURE you ask them to see the old needle bearing. I was told by Miguel they would be able to install it for a Yelp review. No problem!! However, I was replacing a ripped cv axle boot today and discovered it was never done. This is even after I asked Carlos (Jr) for all the old parts back, he mentioned he had tossed the needle bearing. The picture speaks for itself.

    I'm glad Miguel is going to rectify the issue and take care of me. But it sucks having to drive back up to Riverside for a job you were told was done. Not trying to bag on these guys, but do yourself a favor and ensure you got yours put in.20200721_120539.jpg

    Other than that, the gear install went great and no leaks. The 5.29 gears run great!

    I paid with card. The total was $1,776 I believe. But I had them install the ECGS bushings as well.

    got my gears and arb installed. Brought my own OEM axel seals also. In and out in less than 3 hours. Checked for leaks, damage, and dashed lights before I left. Drove from Riverside to LA and everything looks good so far.

    If you pay with cash, it's a flat 1700. They normally do the ECGS bushing for free and a Yelp review. However, check and make sure they actually replaced the needle bearing.

    Yeah I got the ECGS, so I plan on having them do it... Saw what happened to you, so I will be sure they get it done.

    Thank you
