    Can't do this myself since i live in apts. Any shop in the vicinity that does this? I'm in North Jersey but willing to drive.

    I am not in jersey but any offroad shop or possibly any gear shop should do it. Its not a complicated setup to do for a shop. I would say any mechanic could do it. Find a toyota specific mechanic if no off road shop nearby. Assumed NJ based on your profiile.

    the largest one from a quick search is: https://ok4wd.com/service-department/

    As long as the shop has experience with it and has the necessary tools.

    OK4WD doesn't install customer provided parts.

    Gotcha the clamshell without noting ECGS is you need to replace your front clamshell its a default toyota swap so anyone that can work on Toyotas should be able to do it.

    Why are you using east coast gear supply if you’re not doing the install yourself? Why not just have ok4wd install the gears or locker?

    or just swap the clamshell yourself? I don’t see what living in an apartment has to do with it. You could go somewhere else if you’re not allowed to work on it in your parking lot.

    I'm confused. I want to replace the oem needle bearing that causes vibrations after a lift. Do other companies make a replacement similar to ecgs? What's the alternative?
