Unless you already have access to them, a hydraulic press, an accurate inch-pound torque wrench and dial gauge micrometer, and a 200+ foot-pound torque wrench in addition to the gears, a full installation kit, gear oil, and friction modifier.

I was gonna say that if you plan on doing it yourself and are asking those questions, you are in for a world of trouble. This isn't like bolting on a throttle body.

If he just bought the gears and took it to the shop would they have everything else you need for install? I am wanting 4.10 gears and I figured I could just buy the gears and have the shop do the rest.
