I live in the Houston TX area and I want to get my axles regeared with 4.88s. I talked to 4 wheel parts and they quoted me at around $1400. I dont want to spend that kind of money for this so Im sure there is a smaller shop around that will do it cheaper. If anyone knows of a good shop...let me know. Thanks

 

thats not a horrible price. but i was quoted 1200...

 

there has to be a cheaper shop...4 wheel parts has all their priced jacked up.

 

yeah id just look around. maybe even ask some 4x4 guys in your area.

 

that was the point of this thread but no one wants to respond

 

try the local sections down at the bottom.

it goes by regions i think you might get a responce there.

 

Trimble, keep in mind if he has the 9.75, every part will cost more...

 

there is a guy on TTS that does regearing hit him up

 

im not positive on which one i have...how do i find out?

 

i sent him a PM but he hasnt responded...do you know the phone number to his shop or where it is located at?

 

what engine do you have? 5.4's are equipped w/ the 9.75 rear, the 4.6 and 4.2 the 8.8 rear. ask the shop which axle that quote applies to as well...

 

well the truck has a 4.6 in it but i know the axle has been replaced. it is a 1996 axle on the 1997 truck. Is there a way of looking at it to tell (like the tag or something)? or is there a way to measure it or seomthing? Thanks
