He said half a day, so it should be done around the time you get into monroe. I wont be picking it up until about 330 because of class.

I'm going to do this mod this summer hopefully, i want/need 4.56s bad. Since they will have the rear diff opened up, I think I'm going to have a detroit locker put in at the same time. I'm pretty sure my stock clutch packs are long gone anyways.

where are you guys finding these gears?

eBay is useless for me. nothing but 8.8 axles


I'm wanting some 4.56 gearsets, but I am really having a hard time finding them for the 9.75 rear, and the reverse cut 8.8 front.

I'd even go for a 4.30 set if I can find them

k My fiancee's doctor's appointment is at 3:00 in West Monroe so I might not make it there in time to see you. For the price and downtime i'm definately gonna get those 4.10's now.

I found some gears at 4wp just the ring and pinion for 208 I think. I'm buying these directly from the shop, brand new 4.56 yukons.

You're going to love the new gears and the difference they make in your truck. One of the best mods I have done to my truck.
