Its intimidating your first time, but its not hard....

DONE! We put the rear end back together in and hour and a half..... Tomarrow is alignment and new tires and rims.....
I bought 2 sets of gears, kind of on a miscommunication. My friend is going to buy the front 4.56's, but i have the backs (9.75 in 4.56 ratio) that I will sell cheap. They will not take it back. I will send it with the pinion nut and the shims you need. If you have low milage all you would need is a pinion seal (19.00 dollars at the ford dealer).. I have over 300 in the gears and min install kit. I will sell it for 150 if anyone wants a cheap start. They are yukon gears, the same I put in my truck.
More pics tomarrow once its done....

Thanks, I am pretty happy. Perfect rake IMHO, and no drive train issues, except for maybe the front driveshaft at high speeds..... Power is good witht he 4.56... if i had it over, I would go 4.88, since my rpms are so low still.... I really needed the 1.75 inches added on to my driveshaft with the extra lift!
