so i went to a "performance" place today and had one of the techs make an ass of himself by telling me stuff about my truck and our gen of trucks that i knew just wasnt true. they might be able to hook up their chargers and challengers, but dont know shit about....................end rant.
so anyway. heres the deal. i just ordered a 8.25 27 spline suregrip LSD. apparently they arent made anymore but these were found stashed away in a warehouse. $90 after shipping, couldnt resist. id like to add some 4.10s while im in there. i called a different place and they said they could do it, but wouldnt warranty it because i provided my own locker. they want $560 labor to do the swap. can someone provide me a detailed explanation as to what work is neccesary. i figure u gotta just about rebuild the whole thing but id like a step by step or a link to some info as to how to do this so i can decide if i think i can do it myself. BTW, the guys at the shop i visited told me 4.10s wouldnt even go in my rear end and that my mostly stock v8 would snap my axles if i could get it in there. any info is helpfull. im just kinda confused now :huh:
