T-lok and 4.10's

SlowSix · November 12th, 2010, 09:41 PM

The place I get my work done charges $275 + the price of gears. Not bad at all imo.

craigdavey · November 15th, 2010, 09:14 AM

I am not even going to try to do the install myself. I know about exterior and some things with the engine, but i know nothing about rear end differentials. I have an impact and some of the tools, but i dont have all of them needed for this.

I'll just have to call around and try to get a good price.

That, sockets and a dial indicator is about all that you need

for whoever asked i believe an 8.8 is roughly 80lbs heavier than a 7.5 but it also depends on your year

I would try it, but this is my DD and i cant afford to mess anything up. So i think i'll leave it to professionals.

+1 this is one mod i would let the shops do if youve never done it before.

Also i was quoted 250 for the gears+tlok install before i decided to put them up for sale instead of installing them.

Wouldnt you still have to get the gears in? I doubt op would change them hell i wouldnt either.

no dont worry about it, the upgraded strength far more important than any downsides of the added weight

Cost me $300 and I brought in the gears, tlok, and bearing + install kit. Best mods on my car imo.

craigdavey · November 16th, 2010, 08:53 AM

So it is probably going to be between $700 and $800 total for this. Any thoughts on used gears and t-lok? I know it is most likely a bad idea because of gear wear but any opinions would help.

Mine were used.. They are fine
