    Good news Aaron.

    Okay, well might not end up swapping to 63" chevy springs... no what though I will FOR SURE need help installing both ARB lockers. Has anyone done a locker install before? Particularly on the front differential.

    Thats a pretty in-depth project if you haven't done any differential work before.. It might be smarter just to take it somewhere.

    Yeah, I wouldn't mind (read planning on) dropping off the differentials at GTF, they quoted me about 200 each for that. They recommended I get a full master rebuild kit as well with my gears and lockers.

    I won't pay them 7 hours of labor to take the front end apart and put it back together in addition to doing the install of the lockers.

    So what all are you doing? If you're doing gears as well, definitely do them at the same time.

    I am buying F/R ARB lockers and 4.56 Nitro gears.

    I will take the front and rear differentials to GTF to do the install. I will pick them up about $400 later and install in Taco.

    Them drive the crap out of them fully locked. :mudding: :cool:


    I will need help tearing the front end apart to get the front differential out.
